Hi Doug,

Just wanted to follow up on this.  I'm getting the error that says that the 
QDEC GLM design creates 0 factors, regardless of how many of the factors in the 
data table I sent are included in the design.  (There are a total of 2 discrete 
and 9 continuous variables in the data table.)

I haven't been able to find any information on this error in the archive - 
would love your thoughts.

Thanks,
Kate

Hi Doug,

I'm using 5.3.

This error was generated when I had more variables in the model, so I used the 
option within qdec to remove variables from the data table to see if that had 
any effect (i.e., deleted everything except one categorical variable).  Still 
got the error you see below.

Thanks,
Kate

What version of FS are you using? When I load that file in 5.3 qdec, it
creates several discrete classes, see below
