My Excel file (xlsx) contains more than 1200 columns. I tried to open it
using the SPSS version 17.01 but the following error came up: "Error
Starting the Java Virtual Machine; unable to open file; "FILE NAME"".
I had no choice but copy/paste all the data from Excel into SPSS. But when I
do it, all the variables are changed into string (on variables page).
Is there a way to convert multiple string variables into numeric using a
single command?
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
