Partial rank correlations in SPSS

Troubleshooting


Problem

I wish to use SPSS to find the partial correlation of a pair of variables, controlling for a set of additional variables. However, I want the partial correlation to be a rank correlation, such as the Spearman rho, rather than a Pearson correlation. The Partial Corr procedure in SPSS does not provide a rank correlation option. How can I request a partial rank correlation in SPSS?
