Troubleshooting
Problem
I am using SPSS/PASW Statistics software and have a set of alphanumeric codes which I need to treat in tables as a multiple dichotomy. People can place any of the characters A1 A2 B1 B2 C1 C2 D1 D2 E1 E2 F1 F2 G1 G2 H1 H2 I1 I2 J1 J2 in any position within 20 separate fields. I was going to try the AUTORECODE command but realized it will fail if I don't have every character code in every position. Is there a good way to create a multiple dichotomy for a set of string variables with relatively few possible codes?
