     I have a copy of that book here at home, so I can save you a
     trip.  Everything on page 8 in npar_tests.pdf from spss.com
     (headed "Binomial Tests") is identical to text in SPSS
     Statistical Algorithms (2 ed.), except for one point: the .pdf
     has a square root in the denominator of the formulas for Z_1 and
     Z_2, but the book's formulas omit the square roots.

That would have to be a typo.   I don't think it has anything to do
with the problems I've been having.

     Where I wrote MIN, read MAX.  

OK.  Thanks.
