SPSS 16.0.2 crashes

[msherman]

Dear List:  Whenever I quickly move my cursor in an output file SPSS 16.0.2 crashes on me. Has anyone had this problem (is it unique to my setup or common to SPSS16.0.2?).

I am guessing that you are in SPSS but what do you mean "move my cursor in
an output file?" Do you mean moving around the output viewer?

Hello Martin,

Do I recall that you are using Mac OS?

I've got SPSS V.16.0.2 running on a MacBook Pro and am not able to
get it to crash by rapid cursor movement in an output window.  So far
I am finding it quite stable (knock on wood). Maybe try repairing
permissions in Disk Utility?

BTW, I was having problems copy/paste output tables into Excel when
using SPSS V.16.0.2.  All the text would paste into a single column.
This was an old Excel (MS Office X) that I liked for simplicity of
function.

I did find that SPSS 16.0.2 tables copy/paste into newer versions of
Excel (V. 11.3.5) without this problem, but that I still have copy/
paste problems, especially when using keyboard shortcuts for copy
(command-c) and paste (command-v).  SPSS graphs seem to need "paste
special: picture" in order to paste into Excel (11.3.5) or Powerpoint
(11.3.5).

best regards,
Ian.
