Thanks for pointing out the problem with the menu for means.
It seems that we mistakenly added some options to means (using the menu dialogue) that aren’t implemented. I’ll add this to our issues list tonight. This should only affect the means dialogue.
You can type
means population
at the command line and get your results.
It seems that I need a paid google apps subscription to see your site.

I can do some analysis, such as frequency, and a scatter graph, but I'm having problems with means.
Using the menu drop downs, I tried to get a means for population and got this outcome
.means population !vla !l; ERROR: Unknown option/variable: vla
Actually, I get the same error if I try to get means for pctbelowpov, and gdppercap too.
I -can- use population in a scatter plot, for example, population by gdppercap, or population by pctbelowpov.
I can also use "describe" on a set of variables, for example, pctbelowpov to population.
Just can't get means to work.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
