It works all right on 64 bit ver. 20.0.0.2.
But David, can I personally ask you to title your posts more subject? "Great way to end the week ;-((((" isn't informative, so the post has a great chance to be missed by readers. In your style, titling it like "Oh, what a crap with MATRIX again!" would have been much better. 14.09.2013 5:08, David Marso пишет:

Re: Great way to end the week ;-((((

Here's the answer. It has nothing
to do with 64 bit or Win8, and it is not new behavior.
MATRIX cannot write to the active dataset via a dataset name. It can write to a declared dataset if it isn't the active file, and it can write to the active file as *, but it can't write to the active file via a dataset name. This is the case in both 21.0.0.1 and 22 and in 32-bit V20. The CSR says OUTFILE designates the file to which the matrix expression is to be written. It can be an actual filename in quotes, a previously declared dataset in the current session, or a file handle defined on a FILE HANDLE command that precedes the matrix program. v To save a matrix expression as the active dataset, specify an asterisk (*). If there is no active dataset, one will be created; if there is one, it is replaced by the saved matrices. I will file a bug on this, but if there is some reason that dataset access to the active file is not possible, we will at least update the doc.

1. OhCrap in this case is NOT the active dataset.
2. Precisely the SAME code runs fine in ver 21.0.1, 22.0.0 32 bit 3. OK for some in Win7 64 bit 4. So far 2 instances of Win 8 64 bit Oops. 5. This is the first time I've encountered this in say 10 years of doing MATRIX development. ---------------- I'm not sure how this has nothing to do with 64 bit or Win8 since that is precisely the ONLY place this replicates.

OUTFILE = * saves to a NEW dataset which becomes active.

-> CRS: "To save a matrix
expression as the
active dataset, specify an asterisk (*).
If there is no active dataset,
one will be created; if there is one, it is replaced by the saved matrices." It reads mystical, possibly ravings. 1) Can SPSS be without an active dataset at all? There is always one, named or unnnamed. 2) MATRIX and other procedures saving to * save to a new, unnamed active dataset; No replacement, unless the initial dataset was unnamed (if it was unnamed, it discards). Examples below all agree. correlations VAR00001 VAR00002 /matrix= out(*). dataset display. reliability /variables= VAR00001 VAR00002 /scale('all variables') all /matrix= out(*). dataset display. matrix. get x /variables= VAR00001 VAR00002. save x /outfile= *. end matrix. dataset display. 14.09.2013 20:51, Jon K Peck пишет:

Feeling nostalgic today...
I run into the same problem when (in my pre-Stata days), my University switched to Windows 7, SPSS 15 gave the same error message. I found out that running SPSS as Administrator (right click, etcetera..) eliminated the problem. I was able to check it with SPSS 20/W7 recently, and running as Administrator solved the problem.
