ID Subcommand (KM command)

ID specifies a variable used for labeling cases. If the ID variable is a string, KM uses the string values as case identifiers in the KM table. If the ID variable is numeric, KM uses value labels or numeric values if value labels are not defined.

  • ID is the first column of the KM table displayed for each combination of factor and stratum.
  • If a string value or a value label exceeds 20 bytes in width, KM truncates the case identifier and displays a warning.
