Thanks Jon for quick reply.

You are right that I do not have Japanese based Windows system. Please
correct me if I am not following your instruction

:

1. I wrote the syntax: SET LOCALE=Japanese, but got the following error:

set locale=Japanese.

>Warning # 849 in column 12. Text: Japanese

>The LOCALE subcommand of the SET command has an invalid parameter. It

>could not be mapped to a valid backend locale.

You need to set your SPSS locale to Japanese. This requires you to have
Japanese support in your Windows OS, which can be added to most Windows
versions if not already there.

Start with

SET LOCALE=Japanese.

If this works, then you will have to change the fonts in the Data Editor
and output windows in order to see the text. (Try MS Mincho or MS
Gothic with the script set to Japanese). If your Windows system is not
itself in a Japanese locale (which it probably isn't) some user
interface text will not display properly, but the output and data editor
will behave correctly if you change the fonts appropriately.

SPSS 16 makes this much easier, but you can do it in 14 or 15 as well
with some limitations.

HTH,

Jon Peck

Subject: [SPSSX-L] Translation

Hi Team:

I have English based SPSS 14. In one of the survey I am receiving open

end text in Japanese. However, when I try to import that text SPSS does

not recognize Japanese text and so does not import the string text.

Any solution?

That means that your Windows installation (assuming you are in fact on Windows) does not have the required support (fonts, code page definitions etc) for Far Eastern languages. You need to install this before SPSS can work with Japanese text.

Details vary among different Windows versions on how to do this, but typically you do this in the Control Panel Regional Options. There is a checkbox with text something like "Install files for East Asian languages".

If you succeed at that step, you can try the SPSS-specific steps.

HTH,

since I have installed east-asia languages this morning:
you might need your windows installation-cd.
