Some of the FILE MEDIT pages may be conditional depending on the
properties of the observation.
A conditional page is indicated by a page header of the form

Page:<name> CONDITION:<condition of type SELECT> 

Example:
Northern=Province:LAP,OUL,VAA,KUO Small=Popul,0,10000
Page 2a: CONDITION:Northern*Small

%1 is a northern and small commune. / %1=Commune

END

Since variables with lags and leads can also be used on FILE MEDIT
pages, monthly time series may be presented year by year, for example.

In the example below only cases 'January' are selected, but on the pages
also information about other months can be given by using notations
Temp[+1],Temp[+2],... for variable Temp.

January=Month:1 / Definition of the condition
PAGE Page1: CONDITION:January

Year: ####
Temperature in January %1   / %1=Temp
Temperature in February %1  / %1=Temp[+1]
Temperature in March %1     / %1=Temp[+2]
etc.
END

This feature is used in the following advanced example.
