Providing a blank or empty value label is not the same as deleting it. Such phantom labels will show up in output from certain procedures, including CTABLES (optional but default) or GGRAPH GPL generated by the Chart Builder even if there are no cases with those values.

Jon I have 84,000 lines of value labels code produced by StatTransfer. It looks like this: value labels Country -9 'Refused' -8 "Don't know" -1 'Not applicable' 1 'England' 2 'Scotland' 3 'Wales' 8 "Don't know" 9 'Refused' / Rsex -9 'Refused' -8 "Don't know" -1 'Not applicable' 1 'Male' 2 'Female' 8 "Don't know" 9 'Refused' / Rage -99 'Refused' -98 "Don't know" -1 'Not applicable' 98 "Don't know" 99 'Refused' / SPSS doesn't like running it and runs out of memory, but I can split it into chunks. For variables that have already had positive missing values recoded to negative, what will happen when running . . value labels all "". .. followed by an edited version produced via Ctrl H to replace all 8 "Don't know" and 9 'Refused' with a space ? value labels Country -9 'Refused' -8 "Don't know" -1 'Not applicable' 1 'England' 2 'Scotland' 3 'Wales' / Rsex -9 'Refused' -8 "Don't know" -1 'Not applicable' 1 'Male' 2 'Female' / Rage -99 'Refused' -98 "Don't know" -1 'Not applicable' / John F Hall (Mr) [Retired academic survey researcher] Email: [hidden email] Website: www.surveyresearch.weebly.com SPSS start page: www.surveyresearch.weebly.com/1-survey-analysis-workshop -----Original Message----- Providing a blank or empty value label is not the same as deleting it.

Just tried it on those three variables. After value labels “ “ it displays: {-976931348623157000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000} in the Values column. When I run the edited syntax the ellipse displays without the phantom labels. Hopefully this is a solution to the problem.

You could try turning of syntax highlighting via Edit >> Options. That should speed up things. Alternatively, you could INSERT the file. The Production Facility also uses this, and has no computationally expensive GUI (notably the Data Editor). savReaderWriter.SavHeaderReader.all will load all metadata in memory (as a named tuple by default). Just in case your expensive license expires:-) This is part of a free Python package.
