I don't know if PSPP (or SPSS) can do Pareto Diagrams. So, maybe PSPP
isn't the tool you need.
But PSPP has (I think) the same capabilities of combining data as SPSS,
but I think you do need to use syntax. This page describes the commands
to combine data files. There's a command to stack files/add
nks! That is very helpful.

You can import from and save to OpenOffice/LibreOffice/ODF formats, but

this is a real PITA. So, I find it wor

Actually, I get a different error when the output file has it's
read-only bit set. So that's probably not it.

Manos,
As a guess, you are trying to write to a directory for which you do do
have write permission.
To help you further, we need you to fully describe your problem, with
step-by-step instructions for replicating the problem. We also need the
exact error message, including the directory names.

That's annoying; I'm sorry you're having this trouble.
One of the developers may have a better idea what this error means. It
sounds like a problem with encoding or a bug in PSPP. Of course, it's
possible that the actual problem is unrelated and merely causes this.
They would need to know the vers

Sorry, that was my point. It's really unhelpful to stop on warnings (of
any number). MXWARNS is helpful to sto
This is probably known, but SPSS will stop on some errors. If the GET
DATA command fails, it will stop at the first routine that requires a
dataset. I think it will also stop on a duplicate key when merging files
by a condition.
I don't think it stops on errors like divide-by-zero (i.e., where I'v
I don't think that's supported. In the past, the advice has been to save
the XLSX file as a supported format (ODT or delimited file) and import that.
I recommend doing this for SPSS as well, because when I import an Excel
file directly in SPSS, it makes guesses about variable types/lengths

I think this message should be on the dev list, whom I've cc'd (but if
you're not on it, you won't see the replies to that list).
I don't use MR sets, so my understanding is slight. I think PSPP does
not (did not in the past) support that syntax. I see below that there is
at least support in readi
Past discussions have suggested that PSPP does not yet replicate this
functionality (but I'd love to fin d out that my recollection is wrong
or that PSPP has added support).

Nancy,
I haven't run in to this problem and I cannot tell you exactly
step-by-step what to do, but I can explain what's going on and give you
some advice.
Incompatible encodings implies that the files have encodings that are
not all the same and the warning is that you could be surprised by the

That is a drag.
If you saved the data, the saved file should have survived the crash. If
not, then probably not.
Also, to have any hope of having the developers examine the crash, they
would also need more information like the operating system you are using
and the version of PSPP, and what you w
Sorry, that was dumb. I attached a link to the spreadsheet to my
previous email. If you you want the spreadsheet, here it is. It is a
LibreOffice document.
