	Warning # 3211 by Julie-49 :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message We are getting Warning # 3211 >On at least one case, the value of the weight variable was zero, negative, or >missing. Such cases are invisible to statistical procedures and graphs which >need positively weighted cases, but remain on the file and are processed by >non-statistical facilities such as LIST and SAVE. Is there a way to code the data so this warning does not show up or how exactly do we deal with this and is it a problem to be concerned about?

	Re: Warning # 3211 by Oliver, Richard :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message I think that may be the exact opposite of what you want, since that will filter out all the positive values, leaving only the cases with 0 or negative weight values available for analysis. I would change (myWeight <= 0) to (myWeight > 0). -----Original Message----- From: SPSSX(r) Discussion [mailto:SPSSX-L@...] On Behalf Of Antoon Smulders Sent: Wednesday, November 11, 2009 2:21 AM To: SPSSX-L@...
