Using Select Cases Properly

Troubleshooting


Problem

You are using Statistics with the Select Cases function in which you want to select 2 out of 4 values for a particular variable. You go to Data->Select Cases->and Click on 'If condition is satisfied' You then click on the 'IF' push button, highlight my variable, and click on the middle arrow to bring it over to the Expression box. You then specify 'var=1' AND 'var=2'. When you do so, all the cases become unselected. What you are doing wrong?
