Thank you for the response. I agree with you. I ran a command after the “TEMPORARY” command – but the entire data set is still missing most of the data due to my “SELECT IF” COMMAND. The workaround is I am creating separate files for each select if command I use. Bulky for now. . .

If you run temp. sel if (vars >=1) freq varx to vary. SAVE /OUTFILE={’file_name’,file_handle} you save the complete data set without the effect of the filter.

The “TEMPORARY” filter gets me the data I desired, but how do I get the data file back to the complete data set before I ran the PSPP syntax? I could not find the resolution in my PSPP books.
