I believe that this is the way that GET works in SPSS as well. You can use DATASET ACTIVATE and other DATASET commands to arrange for multiple active datasets in syntax at any time. > 2) SAVE OUTFILE command also does not save with the proposed file name.

Any chance you could provide the data files, or at least a subset (perhaps a few cases?) from the data files? If we can reproduce the problem, we can probably fix it, but it's very difficult otherwise to guess what the problem is. _______________________________________________ Pspp-users mailing list Pspp-users@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pspp-users
