Specify YES to see data items that do not support detailed
data.
When you specify AGGREGATE=YES and use the CONTENTS procedure to view
the contents of an information map, a column named Default Aggregation appears
in the procedure output showing the default aggregation function that is assigned
to the variable. If the original variable was character type, it is changed
to numeric type due to applying the aggregation function. For example, a default
aggregation function of COUNT on a character variable containing names produces
a numeric variable that contains the number of names. A line in the heading
of the CONTENTS procedure output shows the number of aggregate variables,
if any.
