sPSS
A. Spss character data, the character data only case-sensitive, uppercase and lowercase m m is not the same.
The number 1 in the input variables can be set in view of the character "width", and character. When "column" value, only the width of the character "column" set "width" of the variable is greater than the value set in view, but other characters remain. Generally greater than the width of the column value
2 character data may be provided a paper label. As the column, two values "sex" variable to m, f, their performance values were female male
3 If the label is English only, you can click the Spelling spell check to check the label refers to filled out in English
Second missing values:
If there is missing data, there are SPSS for character data and numerical data different approach, numerical data for the missing values by default. ""; For a string line data system default value is empty, an empty string if meaningful , you need to define the missing values in the variables view

Open Database Connectivity is central to understanding between heterogeneous databases, data sharing produced, has become a major part of WOSA (window open system) and is based on a standard database access interface window environment, Od pc provide access to heterogeneous databases unified interface. Allows the application to take the standard sol data have different data access management data odbc application directly manipulate db dispense with the changed DB changed by oDbc Db can access files on various types of computer. Access and Excel tables and even ascll data files such non-data objects.
Database variable naming only in English (first letter capitalized) (if not English, Pinyin or Hanyu Pinyin initials)

Database variable naming only English capitalized (with Pinyin and English is not the first Chinese phonetic alphabet.)
For more than two different cases, merge data file into Add Variable
1. Add Cases: Select Data - Merge Files - Add Cases
2. Add variables: Select Data - Merge Files - Add Variable
First, merge the two data files
Introduction: (. And matching with the indicated variables when two different files of the data set may sort order may specify the position of the time variable key, key variables need to be sorted key data set a variable sequence, if there is no sort ascending) key variable for large sources of data may need to be limited to a smaller number of cases of a representative sample, can significantly reduce the time required to run its program, the interface limits retrieved cases. Reading two or more database tables, ways must specify a correlation between the database associated in most cases can be selected in the default, this type of association, to ensure complete matching conditions associated records will be imported SPSS, if external left side, the left side of the double arrow is recorded in the data table in a timely manner and the data does not match the table to the right will be elected SPSS dataset, SPSS merge the two files transversely, leading to combined error
