The SAS System was used to program a statistical procedure developed by Levy (1975a). The focus was on Dunnett-like pairwise multiple comparisons among sample variances. An example using data from Glass and Hopkins (1996) was used to illustrate the final analysis of a computer run conducted with this program.
