"Matrix in" command for REGRESSION

[Dr. Oliver Walter]

Dear all,

I noticed yesterday that the "matrix in" subcommand does not seem to be
implemented in the REGRESSION command as it is in the commands for
factor analysis. Hence, this kind of syntax does unfortunately not run
in PSPP

DATASET ACTIVATE DataSet1.
REGRESSION
  /MATRIX IN (DataSet1)
  /Variables lohn bildung
  /DESCRIPTIVES MEAN STDDEV
  /MISSING LISTWISE
  /STATISTICS COEFF OUTS R ANOVA
  /CRITERIA=PIN(.05) POUT(.10) CIN(95)
  /NOORIGIN
  /DEPENDENT lohn
  /METHOD=ENTER bildung .

It would be nice to have the possibility to analyze
variance-covariance-matrices or correlation matrices with the REGRESSION
command as well as with the commands for factor analysis.

Just an idea for further development of PSPP.

Kind regards,

Oliver Walter
