Hi,
quoting the manual on combining files:
When more than one input file contains a variable with a given name,
those variables must all have the same type (numeric or string) and,
*for string variables, the same width*.
For me the same width limitation is one of the worst pains with SPSS
(the other one being the total lack of introspection).
I would like to launch a people's petition to break compatibility with
SPSS, allowing different widths and just keeping the width of the one in
the first file encountered.
Unite!
