I found a problem when inserting cases directly using PSPPIRE, maybe I'm doing something wrong.
There is no problem when I run a script to import or create data files. However, when I try to insert cases directly, the PSPPIRE stops at the end of the screen. Let's take an example. I have a survey with 25 variables and 200 cases on paper. I want to type each questionnaire directly using PSPPIRE. I start the PSPPIRE. I open a previous data file I've created, using a script, with 25 variables. Then I go to the PSPPIRE "Data View" and insert the values for the first case. I type "Enter" or "Down arrow" and the cursor jumps to the second case. I expected to repeat this operation 200 times. However, I reach a limit, the rows shown on my screen. In this case, the full-screen limit is 17 rows. When I reach the 17th row, if I press "Enter" or "Down arrow" or any combination of keys (ALT+ENTER,CNTRL+ENTER,TAB,ect) nothing happens. The cursor doesn't jump to the next line. The same happens with the "Variable View" screen. I can insert new variables only until the limit of rows shown on my screen. So, I can't create 25 variables directly (I can do it writing a script). If I use the Menu Command "Edit->Insert cases", PSPP inserts a new row only before the current row. I can't insert the 18th case after the 17th case. I'm using the PSPPIRE 0.7.9-gd0dc2e on windows 7 (I tested an earlier version pspp-0.7.4-g885ed7 with the same limitation). I have PSPP-0.7.8 running under Ubuntu 10.04, and the same occurs.
