Claudine -
When I run it here the tally command reports every value of the
column being tallied, both those where the count = 1 and those where the
count > 1. Are you sure you have rows in your test data where there is only
one exemplar of one or more specific values in the column being tallied such
that some values of that column occur only one time? If all of the values
being tallied occur more than once in the table the command will look like
it's working when it isn't.
