Error: A string variable was used in a variable list where only numeric variables are allowed. Execution of this command stops.

Hi,

I need help to overcome a warning while trying to run a syntax of Conjoint
Analysis. I've uploaded the file as well for perusal. Below is the warning
message:

Warnings
Text: PREF1 Command: CONJOINT
A string variable was used in a variable list where only numeric variables
are allowed.
Execution of this command stops.
Unrecognized text appears where end of subcommand (slash) was expected.

Not sure, where it's going wrong. Please help me!

Many thanks in advance!!

I find only numeric variables in your dataset. Proofread your syntax. You
most probably are missing a missing a quotation mark, or a slash, before
PREF1. Always provide your syntax!
