I looked through the data and still have some questions. For instance, I see 208 records that have "CO' as the STATE variable, and then what I assume are counts (as they go from 1 to some other integer) for the many variables. However, I see no zeroes, so perhaps these are not counts but rather responses on a scale as mentioned on my previous post. In any case, the subjects are not identified, although something could be whipped up from the record number within each state. So I want to make sure that my assumption is correct. If so, then the code I provided just needs to be modified to remove the WEIGHT statement. This will test if the profiles within each variable are the same across the states. A comparison to ALL states could duplicate the dataset, changing STATE to ALL, and proceeding, but that is pseudo-replication and should be avoided. Maybe each state could be compared to the overall rate in a separate analysis, where the TESTP= option is invoked. That would be much better, but is going to require a lot of coding. Steve Denham
