VARIABLE WIDTH specifies the
column width for the display of variables in the Data Editor. It has no effect
on the format of the variable or the display of the variable or values in other
windows or printed results.
Basic
Specification
The
basic specification is a variable name and a positive integer in parentheses
for the column width. Column width for proportional fonts is based on average
character width. Depending on the characters used in the value, more or fewer
characters may be displayed in the specified width.

Subject: [SPSSX-L] Adjusting
Number of Columns for Set of Variables With Syntax
I
cannot recall the exact syntax command in SPSS that lets one adjust the number
of columns displayed in the Data View.
I
am able to manually adjust the number of columns for any given variable (one at
a time) directly in Variable View. But it does not save out the syntax to
do this in the .jnl file (the journal file saved in my options).
I
THINK I worked with a previous set of code that had a very simple statement,
but I cannot remember what it was. Please let me know.
Thank
you.
