Syntax in Generating a report by person

[3J LEMA]

Any syntax so that the SPSS will generate a report (e.g., mean, SD of variables) per person/case where each report will be saved as an SPSS output file? For example, if I will have 5 students in my SPSS file, if I run the syntax, the SPSS will generate 5 separate SPSS output files, each SPSS output file corresponds to one student. In that 5 person example, my files would be:

student1.spv

student2.spv

student3.spv 

student4.spv 

student5.spv     

Thank you for your help.

Check out the SPSSINC PROCESS FILES extension command.  Using it, you specify the input files to process, which could be as a wildcard like c:\myclass\student*.sav or an explicit list of file names.  Then it applies a syntax file you create to each of those files.  The Viewer output can be saved on a per file basis or as one combined file.  In that syntax file you can do any command or set of commands.
