SPSS 16 to 17

[Carly Turner]

I have just recently upgraded to SPSS 17 from 16 and when I have tried to
open any of my files the data set is entirely blank. Now from an exhaustive
exploration I was able to figure out that if I had multiple files open at
one time the data sets would all of a sudden appear.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Carly ... If you click on a .sav file in Explorer, 17.0 might not open
the file.  If you start 17.0 and then click on a sav file in an Explorer
window, the file will open.  Is that what was happening to you?

As far as I know this is a problem with XP and is fixed in the 17.0.1 patch
