This opens the Frequencies dialog box. A more complete description of each variable pops up when the cursor is over it. The variable name (in square brackets) is inccat, and it has the variable label Income category. If there were no variable label, only the variable name would appear in the list box. In the dialog box, you choose the variables you want to analyze from the source list on the left, and move them into the Variable(s) list on the right. The OK button, which runs the analysis, is disabled until at least one variable is placed in the Variable(s) list. Additional labeling information can be easily obtained for any variable on the list by clicking on the variable name with the right mouse button.
All the defined value labels for the variable are displayed.
