SUMMARY Subcommand (CSDESCRIPTIVES command)

SUMMARY specifies the analysis variables that are used by the MEAN and SUM subcommands.

• A variable list is required only if means or sums are to be estimated. If only ratios are to be estimated (that is, if the RATIO subcommand is specified but the MEAN and SUM subcommands are not specified), the SUMMARY subcommand is ignored.
• All specified variables must be numeric.
• All specified variables must be unique.
• Plan file and subpopulation variables may not be specified on the SUMMARY subcommand.
