st: collapse?
Dear All:
i am working w/ a data set which looks like:
HouseHold ID Member No Income Age EdLevel
1001 1 $20,000
40 1
1001 2 40,000
32 3
1001 3 .
5 .
1001 4 .
3 .
1001 5 12,000
68 4
1002 1 45,000
45 5
1002 2 50,000
55 5
1003 1 34,000
39 2
..........................................................................................................
i would like to create one record per household where each household's Age
and EdLevel is the one of its highest
income earner. Namely:
HouseHold ID Age EdLevel
1001 32 3
1002 55 5 etc..
i do not know how to trick the "collapse by MemberNo" command to do the
job. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanx in advance. nurhan
