Dear all,
I hope that this subject doesn't already exist!
I'm trying to export data I obtained on SPSS. When I "run all" the syntaxt, I have a lot of error messages. You can find bellow a resume. I checked that the syntaxt is correctly saved in UNICODE. After reading some posts on the forum, it appeared that the error could come from the famous fourth or fifth line. I tried numerous possiblities. I copyied directement the link given by the computer, but without succes (/Users/emilie/Desktop/'survey_78161_SPSS_data_file.dat'). I tried with and without "/" before Users. I checked that the survey number was correct.
I asked for help to one of my colleague and he answered that sometimes, the error comed from mac. But he didn't know how. So I tried on a Windows computer, but there's nothing to do.
