Hi Michele,
I see what the problem is.
If you run the command
SYSFILE INFO "VDS_survey_02.sav".
You will see that the dataset is weighted by the variable "offroadside".
This is clearly inappropriate. Since offroadside contains at least one
SYSIS value, there can be no meaningfull frequency information.
You can fix this by running the command:
WEIGHT OFF.
Perhaps you inadvertently set the weighting when you entered the data?
If not then it may indicate a bug somewhere.
A couple of things I notice which we need to improve in the next
release:
1. Mosts commands give a warning when a weight value is
SYSIS, but the Frequencies command does not.
2. When this dataset is loaded in the GUI and the menu,
Data|Weight Cases is opened, the dialog box should indicate the current
weight variable, but it seems not to do that for some reason.
Thanks for reporting this issue.

Hi John,
I did not import the data.
My steps:
1. Open a BLANK data file using the GUI.
2. Create empty variables using the syntax. (For example: String var (A3)
.. Numeric var (F8.0) ... )
3. Manually enter the data using the GUI, one cell at the time.
4. Do a frequency of a variable using the GUI and using syntax command.
Results: all values had frequency of 0.
There was no "Original raw data", no syntax to import the file.
As I have stated in my previous email, when I did import a text data file,
then Frequencies worked.
Regards,
Michele
