Hi there, Two suggestions to improve PSPP, one is a bug, one a feature request:
1) Update should not update with a missing value. The docs say this: > When a variable in a transaction file has a missing value or when a string > variable's value is all blanks, that value is never used to update the > master file. But I found that it does overwrite a non-missing value with missing value. Example: > data list /ID (F1) updatevar (F1). > begin data. > 11 > 21 > 31 > 41 > 51 > end data. > save /outfile='a.sav'. > data list /ID (F1) updatevar (F1). > begin data. > 12 > 22 > 3 > 42 > 5 > end data. > save /outfile='b.sav'. > update > /file='a.sav' /sort > /file='b.sav' /sort > /by=id. > *result should be 2,2,1,2,1, but it is 2,2,mis,2,mis. > save /outfile='update.sav'. 2) copy/paste from gui, particularly the variable tab. It would make my life tremendously easier. Cheers, Kees
