Use to call up the count dialog. Indicate a target variable that will receive the counts and specify a label for it. (In the example, we are adding a number of variables about some ecological behaviours (a value of 1 in a variable means that the person does, e.g. sort refuse, and 0 that she does not).

Select the value(s) you want to count. You can count specific values, ranges of values, but also Missing values and SYSMIS. Add all values you want to count. (In our example we are counting 1s in all the variables.

Note that counting never produces missing values.
