I really wanted to take the opportunity, but I have a few files in
that format, corresponding to an internal unpublished research.
Despite the antiquity is confidential.

I am very interested in the concept of "preserve data" (see

files. I ask my colleagues if they have files in SPSS/PC+ format, so
that you can analyze.

I appreciate your work
