Hi!

Thank you for your thoughts. Unfortunatelly I can not use Jonckheere test or any transformations.

I will try with Bonferroni-Holms correction.. Do you have any example for Bonferroni-Holms correction. I have found your post on Tue, 27 Apr 2004 14:23:24 UT on SAS-L. Did you get any response?

With regards, Gregor
