MOD is a logical format. The standard setting is NMOD (false).

MOD specifies that the most commonly occurring value for relevant tables is to be calculated and printed.

Format MOD takes effect when row questions have label control <V> set or a value distribution table (list all rows) is used.

It is assumed that no record enters more than once into a column. Total rows are not used. Modal values can only be calculated if all the rows of a table are included in the calculation.

IMPORTANT: For value distribution tables (list all rows) you must also use format RNA.
