What is SPSS?

There is no overall switch. For example,

sysuse auto, clear
su

will show you that -summarize- uses the maximum number of
observations, variable by variable. On the other hand,

corr price-foreign

is based on listwise deletion and you need

pwcorr price-foreign

to get anything else.
