Syntax for NPS

[Synti]

Hello everybody,

I am actually writing the syntax for the net promoter score in SPSS. I've already found a help for the syntax in this forum, but there is still one problem left.
Below you see the syntax I am using at the moment. At the end I would like to close and to deactivate the window which appears with the NPS and not just to minimize it. But SPSS doesn't react to this syntax demand.The window still exists. Can anybody help me?Thank you a lot!


DATASET DECLARE NPSData10 WINDOW=MINIMIZED.
AGGREGATE OUTFILE=NPSData10
/BREAK=Hilfsvariable
/GrpSize 'N. of respondents in group' = NU
/PctProm 'Percent of promoters' = PIN(q12Skala,9,10)
/PctDetr 'Percent of detractors' = PIN(q12Skala,1, 6).

DATASET ACTIVATE NPSData10 WINDOW=FRONT.

COMPUTE NPS = PctProm - PctDetr.
VAR LABEL NPS 'Net Promoter Score'.

descriptives PctProm PctDetr NPS.

execute.

DATASET ACTIVATE NPSData10 WINDOW=FRONT.
execute.

DATASET close NPSData10.
execute.


format NPS (F3.1).
execute.

Do you have another dataset open and named?

SPSS will not close the last dataset-- it will remove the name but leave
the dataset active.

No there is no other dataset open and named. just the one I am activating in the syntax!

Hello all,

Can someone explain to me the difference between fieldlists and varlists (or point me to a section in the help)?
NPTESTS and LINEAR use fieldlist in their syntax diagrams, while most commands use varlists.
I am using version 19.0.0.
Thanks in advance
