m i need to do a normality test for a data. i searched for
m normality test, but i couldn't find yet. is there a
m normality test (normal probability plots-checking the
m normality assumption)?

The only canned functions I can think of are SKEW, which checks
the asymmetry of the distribution and KURT, which measures
kurtosis or "peakedness". These are often used as measures of an
approach to normality and there are HELP articles.
