APRIL 17, 1991 BEING NEW TO ELETRONIC MAIL..... I AM RESENDING THIS MESSAGE BECAUSE I'M UNSURE IF IT INITIALLY REACHED THE ICON-GROUP. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY RESPONSE TO AFFIRM PROCEDURES ON THIS END. THANKS. WE'RE DOING A CONTENT ANALYSIS OF SURVEY DATA THAT REQUIRES MORE than word frequency counts, something more on the level of a qualitative factor analysis. I am the research associate at the Child Guidance Center of Greater Cleveland, a non-profit 401(c)(3) organization. Having purchased the MS-DOS/386 version of Icon and the book Icon Programming for Humanists late last year but only being able to upgrade memory beyond 1 meg recently, I'm in a fix to put together a program (by 4/16/91) beyond word counts. Can anyone help? Bill Burkey Child Guidance Center 2525 E 22 Cleveland, OH 44115 (216)696-5800 x23 bitnet <r1325@csuohio>
