Geni, PSPP for windows has a problem when the filename or the path has extended characters (which would be natural for non-English speakers).
The developers have made some fixes but the simplest solution would be if you could avoid such characters. I would also avoid spaces. So, hopefully you can change the folder on Z: to something without accents or spaces. If you can do this, Harry would like to know if that solves your problem. -Alan On 11/17/2015 3:57 PM, Harry Thijssen wrote: > > Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2015 11:36:53 -0600 > From: Alan Mead <ame...@alanmead.org <mailto:ame...@alanmead.org>> > To: pspp-users@gnu.org <mailto:pspp-users@gnu.org> > Subject: Re: Error PSPP > Message-ID: <564b65b5.1010...@alanmead.org > <mailto:564b65b5.1010...@alanmead.org>> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="windows-1252" > > Harry, > > Is this the non-ASCII characters problem?
