Graphing frequencies by year with catergorical variables

[andrevallejo]

Hi all. I have imported a spreadsheet from excel, with the following variables: Type of surgery (string) date (date). Since then, I created a new date_var, and filled it with the date, formated as Year. I can use the flexible tables to creste a table that summarizes the type of surgery per year, and have totals for the column and row. What I can't figure out is how to do a bar graph that shows the frequencies of Type of surgey per Year. Any hints? Will I have to recode the type of surgery, and then use value labels back in the generated numerical variable? There should be something better... Thanks, Andre
