Try the following:

PRINT SALES
COMPUTE UPDWN/A3=IF (SALES GT LAST SALES) THEN 'UP' ELSE 'DWN';
BY COUNTRY

BY MODEL
BY BODYTYPE
END


Thanks!

Another quick and d!rty example:

SET ASNAMES=ON
SET HOLDLIST=PRINTONLY
SET HOLDFORMAT=ALPHA
-RUN

TABLE FILE GGORDER
SUM QUANTITY AS 'ORDER'
BY PRODUCT_CODE
ACROSS ORDER_DATE
WHERE ORDER_DATE GE '10/01/97'
WHERE ORDER_DATE LE '12/01/97'
ON TABLE HOLD AS HORDER
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE HORDER
PRINT 
E02
E03
COMPUTE DIFF1/D6 = E03 - E02;
E04
COMPUTE DIFF1/D6 = E04 - E03;
END
-RUN
