Using the PSPPIRE Data Editor (the "data window") select "Data View" at the bottom left (if it's not already selected) and select your case and choose "Edit > Clear Case" and the cases will be deleted.
I usually prefer syntax because if you save the syntax, it makes the analysis replicable and provides some record of what you did. You would probably use SELECT IF to select the remaining data: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/es/SSLVMB_24.0.0/spss/base/syn_select_if_overview.html You can also use FILTER (and other commands) to exclude cases from specific analyses. -Alan On 2/5/2020 1:17 PM, Jeremy Canipe wrote: > Good afternoon- > > I am hoping someone may be able to tell me how delete a case in a PSPP file. > > Seems like a very common issue, so I am hoping someone may be able to help. > > > Kind regards, > > *Jeremy T.
