Re: Importing XML into SPSS

dbrewingto
Hi SPSSX list...I also have an XML into SPSS question.  My XML is of the
following format:

<DATA_EXPORT>
<HEADER>
 <RECDATE>
  <START>2012-01-01</START>
  <END>2012-01-01</END>
 </RECDATE>
 <SURVEY_COUNT>999</SURVEY_COUNT>
 <QUESTION_MAP>
  <QUESTION>
   <SERVICE>SERVICE</SERVICE>
   <VARNAME>AGE</VARNAME>
   <QUESTION_TEXT>Age</QUESTION_TEXT>
  </QUESTION>
  <QUESTION>
   <SERVICE>SERVICE</SERVICE>
   <VARNAME>B2</VARNAME>
   <QUESTION_TEXT>Daily cleaning of your room</QUESTION_TEXT>
  </QUESTION>
  <QUESTION>
   <SERVICE>RH</SERVICE>
   <VARNAME>SECTREDR</VARNAME>
   <QUESTION_TEXT>Rehabilitation Doctor Section Comments</QUESTION_TEXT>
  </QUESTION>
   </QUESTION_MAP>
</HEADER>
<PATIENTLEVELDATA>
 <SURVEY_ID>69999999999</SURVEY_ID>
 <CLIENT_ID>999</CLIENT_ID>
 <SERVICE>SERVICE</SERVICE>
 <RECDATE>2012-01-01</RECDATE>
 <DISDATE>2012-01-01</DISDATE>
 <ANALYSIS>
  <RESPONSE>
   <VARNAME>B2</VARNAME>
   <VALUE>5</VALUE>
  </RESPONSE>

 </ANALYSIS>
 <DEMOGRAPHICS>
  <RESPONSE>
   <VARNAME>AGE</VARNAME>
   <VALUE>99</VALUE>
  </RESPONSE>

 </DEMOGRAPHICS>
 <COMMENTS>
  <RESPONSE>
   <VARNAME>SECTREDR</VARNAME>
   <SENTIMENT>Negative</SENTIMENT>
   <VALUE>I wish someone would have given us a general overview of what to
expect at the beginning so we knew what I was coming.</VALUE>
  </RESPONSE>
 </COMMENTS>
 <HCAHPS>
 </HCAHPS>
</PATIENTLEVELDATA>
</DATA_EXPORT>

I'd like to turn the above into an spss readable file, e.g., something like...

SURVEY_ID,AGE,B2,SECTREDR,SENTIMENT
69999999999,99,5,I wish someone would have given us a general overview of
what to expect at the beginning so we knew what I was coming.,Negative

I've tried using the SPSS Data Pack XML driver, but it seems to be broken in
some fashion (when I try to add the XML driver through ODBC, I click on the
Add button to add a location name and nothing happens - I assume another
popup with a browse-to file type dialogue should appear,and therefore can't
add the driver).

Thanks for any help,
dbrewingto
