Hi,
I have a problem with data extraction using the 'SELECT' software: I selected some variables into the right hand side panel of the software and then tried saving them into an SPSS file by pressing the GO button of the tool bar. Two SPSS files were produced (an SPSS Statistic Syntax File and an SPSS Statistics Data Document). The former contains a list of my selected variables while the latter is empty. I assume the Syntax File is my data definition file so I tried running it on the .DAT file but I discovered that the .DAT file actually contains a VLC Media Player which has 7 options: Media, Playback, Audio, Video, Tools, View and Help. How do I run the Syntax file in the VLC Player? I don't know what I am doing wrong. Kindly advice.
Regards,
Ahmed
