I would be interested to speak to anyone that has tried to create a model using stastistical software like this rather than selecting a number of variables and running it through a database to get the results.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Just had a quick chat to a friend of mine (who uses SPSS at work) about the contents of your email blocka39. She started talking double-dutch & using words I couldn't comprehend (there's many of those!). In a nutshell the answer was 'yes' but I think you need to be a bit of a rocket scientist to use. Maybe one of our forumites can suggest something a bit easier to use.
