I am a relative newbie with SPSS an I need help with a problem.

I have a data set that I can use to determine disease prevalence among several hospital sites, and can determine prevalence per site. I also have the ages of each patient.

Can someone tell me how to do an age-adjusted prevalence analysis of each disease by site? I don't want to use the population distribution of the country as weight factors at all, but I want to use the population distribution among the sample.

Now when I say I am a newbie, that means I need to know how to do the analysis, and what the output indicates, and how to use said output. Basically treat me like the statistical eejit that I am :)

TIA for any help
