FORMAT Subcommand (SUMMARIZE command)

FORMAT specifies whether you want a case listing for your report and whether you want case numbers displayed for the listing. FORMAT also determines whether your reports will display a total category for each group and how the reports will indicate missing values.

NOLIST. Display a Summary Report without a case listing. This setting is the default.

LIST. Display a Listing Report. By default, LIST shows all cases. It can be followed by the optional keyword LIMIT, an equals sign, and a positive integer to limit the number of cases in the report. For example, /FORMAT LIST LIMIT=10 will limit the report to the first 10 cases.

VALIDLIST. Display a Listing Report showing only valid cases.

CASENUM. Display case numbers as a category in the Listing Reports. This setting is the default when FORMAT=LIST or VALIDLIST.

NOCASENUM. Do not display case numbers.

TOTAL. Display the summary statistics for the total of each group with the label Total. This is the default.

NOTOTAL. Display the total category without a label.

MISSING='string'. Display system-missing values as a specified string.
