Hi again

Sorry, in looking again at sammon and isoMDS I see that they seem to do 
exactly what I want, except that they are non-metric, which means, as I 
understand it, that they relate the rank orders of the variables rather than 
the actual distances. 

Could I use these non-metric MDS packages even if my distances are metric?

Thanks
Karen
