All,

I used hotelling to compare some before and after data from patients who
underwent a surgical procedure.  First I made a difference score for each
measure, and then tested whether the vector of mean difference scores was
equal to a vector of zeros.

The Hotelling T-squared procedure dropped 18 of the 28 variables "due to
collininearity."  I don't know how to interpret collininearity in this
context.

Any information is appreciated.

Thanks,
JIm Seward
