It was quite an odyssey but I got my hands on SPSS 17 and tried to
import that set: Works without any questions. So I'd file it as a bug
ASAP.
But as I have to make my analysis for my thesis, is there a quick fix I
can do to make it work in PSPP? I don't have the time to wait for an
update, I guess.
Changing DATETIME to DATETIME20 I get errors about values not being
numbers, so that's your quoting. Do I have to quote everything that's
not a number? Or just every field?
Thank you for your help
Andy
I think the problem is the space in the date/time. If the date/time is supposed to be parsed as one field then you'll have to quote it. J' -- PGP Public key ID: 1024D/2DE827B3 fingerprint = 8797 A26D 0854 2EAB 0285 A290 8A67 719C 2DE8 27B3 See http://pgp.mit.edu or any PGP keyserver for public key.
