As a fellow geezer using SPSS since 1968 (basically freeware).
We have upgraded to 16 from 14 and have had all the problems previously
listed. We set up a computer with only Windows XP and SPSS 16.0. We still
had all of the same problems, ie, files vanish, we can't print output, CPU
runs 100%, etc. We also have found that the export output (from the viewer)
as well as a simple copy and paste also fail. It appears that you can copy
and paste as some type of graphic but not as text. Also the export to
either word or excel doesn't work. Now, this wouldn't be a big deal, but
since we can't print anything...sigh
If we are missing anything, I would love to know what it is.
Thanks
