Principal Components Analysis

Hi,

For my simulations on CNTs, I need to carry out PCA on a dataset containing the co-ordinates of all the atoms in the nanotube for each frame in a trajectory. I have pulled out the co-ordinates in a study table in the below manner.

col.A col.B col.C col.D .. col. XXX
Frame1 x1 y1 Z1 X2 ... n
Frame2 .....
...
Frame'n'

My dataset thus becomes very large (about 2000 columns and 500 rows) and when I click on PCA tool in Statistics->Data Reduction, I get error messege saying
"Unable to open view on Analysis Results - can not return the current operation ID: No operation is in progress."

Can you please help me in getting past this?

Thank you,
Prathamesh
