Reading new files in older versions. 0ecause of changes to the format of the SPSS document 12.spo3 file, output documents created in SPSS 14.0 ma' not be readable b' earlier ,ersions of SPSS. Specifying su stitution fonts w!en converting "rue"ype to PostScript in #PS e$ports. When e4porting &aps, 5rees, or Interacti,e !harts from the SPSS 6iewer to 7ncapsulated PostScript 17PS3, one ma' choose an option to con,ert 5rue5'pe fonts to PostScript fonts. 8lthough the default beha,ior of this option is to match up a 5rue5'pe font with a PostScript font famil' for con,ersion, one can e4plicitl' specif' a substitution PostScript font in the I74/+ont.ini configuration file located in the SPSS installation director' 1directions and samples included3. 5his feature ma' pro,e useful for users of multi#b'te te4t who re uire con,ersion to a specific PostScript font. Saving Stata and S%S files wit! multi& yte varia le names. When sa,ing data files in Stata or S8S format, SPSS ,ariable names that contain multi# b'te characters 1e.g., 9apanese or !hinese characters3 are con,erted to ,ariables names of the general form 6nnn, where nnn is an integer ,alue. an integer ,alue.

3ninstalling Smart 2iewer. If 'ou ha,e SPSS for Windows and Smart6iewer installed on the same computer, uninstalling Smart6iewer ma' cause SPSS for Windows to stop displa'ing graphics. Eou can correct the problem b' repairing 'our SPSS for Windows installation. In the Windows 8dd.$emo,e programs, locate SPSS 14.0 for Windows, press !hange, and follow the prompts to repair the s'stem. 3sing percentage as t!e statistic in c!arts created wit! t!e 6!art 7uilder dialog or 5PL synta$. 5here are se,eral choices for the base count for calculating these percentages.

"ata files sa,ed in ,arious S8S formats from SPSS should wor; in S8S. 5here are ;nown problems using S8S files sa,ed in SPSS with the S8S 6iewer and S8S 9&P 5 # these applications ha,e a different mechanism for reading files which isnKt the same or as stable as the one used in S8S. .ilename limitations for data files saved in S%S formats . 5he following e4cerpt is from the S8S 9&P 5 $78"&7- C"ouble#b'te

characters should not be used in filenames when writing S8S files Lfrom within 9&PM. 5his is a limitation of the S8S local data pro,ider that is to be corrected in ,ersion ( of S8SD. 5his holds true for S8S files sa,ed in SPSS. * S%S formats and string lengt! limitations. If 'ou use SPSS to open S8S data file t'pes, 'ou ma' not be able to get string ,alues longer than 255 b'tes. If 'our data contain ,alues longer than 255 b'tes, SPSS will get onl' the first 255 b'tes. 3sing data sets wit! a large num er of cases in t!e (ata #ditor. When data are read in to SPSS, memor' is allocated in the "ata 7ditor to accommodate all of the cases. If a ,er' large data file 1millions of cases3 is opened 1e,en when connected to an SPSS Ser,er3 it is possible that the computer running SPSS for Windows will run out of ,irtual memor'. 5he number of cases that can be held in memor' b' the "ata 7ditor can be limited b' a special setting. 5he threshold setting does not affect the abilit' to carr' out an' operations in SPSS for Windows, but it ma' affect performance with large datasets. 5his threshold can be set b' using the virtualr.e$e utilit', which is located in the SPSS installation director'. 5he default setting is 100,000 cases. If a "ata 7ditor#specific operation is used to pass the threshold, such as scrolling to the end of a large file, memor' for all of the cases will be allocated. Eou should not change the default unless 'ou ha,e memor' e4haustion problems. In that case, set a smaller ,alue using 2irtualR. "e$t Wi;ard data cac!ing. 5he 5e4t WiGard pro,ides an optional setting that automaticall' caches the data that it imports. 0' default caching is on and the wiGard creates a cop' of the entire dataset. If 'ou turn caching off, SPSS does not ha,e access to the entire data file ## the original data source is re#read as needed ## and the total number of cases is un;nown. When the total number of cases is un;nown, (o to )ase, )op*, and Paste do not wor; as e4pected in the "ata 7ditor. Eou can correct the problem b' using the +ile menu to !ache "ata. 3sing synta$ to read data wit! 8(76. If 'ou use s'nta4 to read data from a database with %"0!, we recommend caching 'our data. !aching 'our data ensures that the data are in the same order each time that SPSS needs to ma;e a data pass. It also ensures that 'our anal'sis isnNt affected b' updates to the database that occur while the s'nta4 is being processed. 5o cache the data, add a !8!O7 command to the s'nta4 immediatel' after 'our H75 "858 command.

Procedures

,ultiple response sets. 8lthough the %riginal 5ables module allows one to create multiple response sets which are used in the 580F7S procedure, these sets can onl' be persisted in a s'stem file from an SPSS for Windows dialog. 5he new !ustom 5ables module has a new dialog which ma;es use of a new s'nta4 command 1&$S75S3 for creating multiple response sets. 8lthough the new mechanism offers some impro,ed functionalit', there ma' be problems using a new multiple response set with the old %riginal 5ables module. 5he %riginal 5ables module onl' wor;s with multiple response sets with names up to se,en b'tes in length 1not including the preceding dollar sign3. 5he new "efine &ultiple $esponse Sets dialog and the new !ustom 5ables module is capable of defining and using multiple response sets that ha,e names that e4ceed se,en b'tes in length. Linear ,i$ed ,odels. In the $andom dialog bo4 if the Include Intercept chec;bo4 is chec;ed but no factors or co,ariates are specified as random effects, the :e4t button will not become a,ailable. 5herefore, in order to generate a $8:"%& subcommand with no effect1s3 other than an intercept, that subcommand must be the last one specified in the $andom dialog bo4. If there are multiple subcommands specified, the last of which contains onl' the intercept, that specification will not be generated unless !ontinue is clic;ed while remaining at that last specification, unless that specification also includes a subBect combination

Eou can correct the problem b' showing all cells and e4porting the pi,ot table again. #$porting 6orrelation ta les to Word. Sometimes when 'ou e4port a !orrelation pi,ot table to Word, the column headers are not in the correct location. Eou can correct the problem b' changing the table properties in SPSS. +ollow these steps## !lose the 74ported Word document ## In SPSS 6iewer, acti,ate the !orrelation Pi,ot 5able ## +rom the +ormat, menu select 5able Properties ## !lic; the Heneral 5ab ## !hange the $ow "imension Fabels to :ested and clic; %A ## 74port the table to Word again If 'ou e4perience this problem fre uentl', 'ou can create and appl' a 5able Foo; that uses :ested $ow "imension Fabels.

C:\\LOCALS~1\Temp\spss####xxx.tmp contains an invalid path . 5his message can occur when 'ou start SPSS immediatel' after installing, change the 5emporar' "irector' setting on 7dit %ptions, and then run a procedure. If 'ou see the message, close SPSS and restart it. 5he 5emporar' "irector' will wor; correctl' after 'ou restart. 6itri$ and Sa$ 7%SI6 error. When 'ou run SPSS as a published !itri4 application, 'ou ma' encounter a Sa4 08SI! error when 'ou attempt to run a procedure. 5he problem can be corrected b' editing the location of the global procedures file on the SPSS %ptions Scripts tab.

SPSS ,aps 8ption ,aps does not use t!e .IL"#R or W#I5<" commands. 5his could lead to misinterpreted results. Limited num er of ranges in Range of 2alues map. If 'ou sa,e an output file that contains a $ange of 6alues map that has more than fi,e ranges defined, 'ou will not be able to reopen that file. 5herefore the limit on the number of ranges in the !reate $ange of 6alues &ap dialog has been set to fi,e. Eou can create a $ange of 6alues map with more ranges using s'nta4 or b' editing the map, and 'ou can cop' that map as a metafile into another application such as a word processorP but if 'ou sa,e the SPSS output file containing such a map, 'ou will be unable to open the file at all. 5he problem is in third#part' software. SPSS Inc. has not 'et been able to obtain a fi4 from the software ,endor, but will distribute a patch as soon as the fi4 becomes a,ailable. Range of 2alues map causes application error wit! Natural 7rea1 and no data. If 'our data specification results in no data records for mapping, the :atural 0rea; formula for determining ranges fails with an application error. 5his most commonl' happens if 'our choice of a geoset or la'er within a geoset does not correspond to 'our data. 8 mismatch table should be produced to indicate this problem, but the application error pre,ents it from being shown. 6opy 8 =ects unavaila le wit! maps. &aps are copied to other software as metafiles. !op' %bBects will not wor; correctl'. 8 side effect of this is that 'ou must cop' and paste maps one at a time. 7ar c!art and pie c!art map t!eme si;e not restored. !hanges

'ou ma;e to the siGe of bar charts and pie charts in editing maps are not retained when the map is sa,ed and restored. 2aria le to refine geograp!ic matc! can cause SPSS to !ang. If 'ou use both a geographic ,ariable and a ,ariable to refine the match, the resulting data table can e4ceed the capabilities of &aps and cause SPSS to hang. &ost significantl', with ?nited States data, if 'ou use !ount' and State as 'our geographic and refining ,ariables and ha,e data for more than a few states, 'ou will e4perience this problem. If 'ou are using the ,arious count'#le,el data files distributed with SPSS &aps, 'ou can a,oid this problem b' specif'ing the 5#digit +IPS codes as 'our geographic ,ariable and no refining ,ariable. +IPS codes identif' counties uni uel'. +or data containing state and count' ,ariables but not +IPS codes, a solution to add +IPS codes to the data will be a,ailable on the SPSS web site. ,aps re:uire updated system resources. If it has been a while since 'ou added &icrosoft products to 'our s'stem, 'ou ma' ha,e outdated s'stem resource files. Installing Internet 74plorer = will update those files.
