1430 REPORT<br />

• The right-justified title displays the page number following the string Page: on the same<br />

line as the first line of the left-justified title.<br />

MISSING Subcommand<br />

MISSING controls the treatment of cases with missing values.<br />

• MISSING specifications apply to variables named on VARIABLES and SUMMARY and to<br />

strings created with the STRING subcommand.<br />

• Missing-value specifications are ignored for variables named on BREAK when<br />

MISSING=VAR or NONE. There is one break category for system-missing values and one<br />

for each user-missing value.<br />

• The character used to indicate missing values is controlled by the FORMAT subcommand.<br />

VAR Missing values are treated separately for each variable. Missing<br />

values are displayed in case listings but are not included in the calculation<br />

of summary statistics on a function-by-function basis. This is<br />

the default.<br />

NONE User-missing values are treated as valid values. This applies to all<br />

variables named on VARIABLES.<br />

LIST[([varlist][n])] Cases with the specified number of missing values across the specified<br />

list of variables are not used. The variable list and n are specified in<br />

parentheses. If n is not specified, the default is 1. If no variables are<br />

specified, all variables named on VARIABLES are assumed.<br />

Example<br />

/MISSING= LIST (XVAR,YVAR,ZVAR 2)<br />

• Any case with two or more missing values across the variables XVAR, YVAR, and ZVAR is<br />

omitted from the report.
