Hello all,

I am looking for a way to set crosstab and means tables to default to a different setting in crosstabs from this:

In SPSS version 14, I had a script that did this. I cannot get it to work in 17, but is seems to me that this would be a standard option or at least commonly available. Does anyone have a way to do this as a default that can be turned off so I can revert to the standard output?

I also prefer means tables to be similarly formatted - which generally means switching the variables (row becomes column and column becomes row) and leaving statistics in the first dimension of row.
