OMSEND locks up

Philip Burgess
I'm running SPSS 17.0.3 on a Pentium 4 XP (SP3) and have 2GB ram.

I have 25,000 records and want to get Cronbach's alpha for various
partitions - see example code below.

The alpha's are compute in less than a minute but the program hangs at
the omsend point - I interupted the process after about 2 hours.

When I check, the omsend has written the requested file. But I can't
work out how to automate the process. I have something like 36
processes such as below and it is not efficient to interupt each one
etc  ...

Any ideas?

Thanks;

Philip
