Hi
I want to start a spss syntax automatically with a dos command. I know that this worked earlier with the runsyntx command which seems not to exist anymore now. Can anybody tell me how to start a spss syntax automatically without having to invoke SPSS manually in SPSS17 Thanks |

Here's a resolution from our knowledgebase that gives the current way to run a job from a commmand line.
David Nichols We have Resolution 75257 on file for this issue. Problem Summary: Where is runsyntx.exe in SPSS 16 and SPSS Statistics 17? Problem Description: I'm running SPSS 16.0 for Windows (or SPSS Statistics 17). In past versions, the SPSS install included an executable, runsyntx.exe, which would allow me to run syntax files from a command line or batch file. It used to reside in the main SPSS installation directory, but I cannot find this executable anymore. Was it removed or replaced? Resolution Summary: Please run your syntax from a Production Mode job or via command line using spss.exe. Resolution Description: The primary purpose of runsyntx.exe was to be able to right-click on a syntax file in Windows explorer and to have it launch SPSS and run it. While some users may have decided to use it as a part of production jobs, it was not the intended use for runsyntx.exe. In SPSS 16, users can use Production Mode or simply specify a syntax file on the command line. Available Switches and Options for running spss.exe from a command line: spss [-server ] [-user ] [-password ] [-switchserver] [-singleseat] [-nologo] [-production [silent|prompt]] [-symbol ] [] ... [-help|-h] Since SPSS Statistics 17, spss.exe was renamed to statistics.exe but you can still use the same command parameters as described above. -----Original Message----- From: SPSSX(r) Discussion [mailto:[hidden email]] On Behalf Of a2mlab Sent: Wednesday, January 28, 2009 11:20 AM To: [hidden email] Subject: [SPSSX-L] batch script in SPSS17 Hi I want to start a spss syntax automatically with a dos command.

Hi all,
I would like to convert my card sort data to proximity matrices for MDS. Data are currently in 51 (Ss) x 15 (var) matrix, with numbers representing the piles Ss placed the cards. The number of piles is variable across subjects (range is 2 to 7 piles). Looking for a way to compute an aggregate proximity matrix without using the script function (as I'm not able to access this function in our institution's version of SPSS 16.0). Would I have to do this by computing individual subject proximity matrices and then adding them? The resolution (Resolution 16651) provided on the SPSS Support website wasn't helpful in this case, as I'm not sure how to input the commands without the script function. Your help is much appreciated! Caroline ===================== To manage your subscription to SPSSX-L, send a message to [hidden email] (not to SPSSX-L), with no body text except the command.

Our apologies, this resolution is in error. Following these instructions will result only in launching SPSS and opening the syntax file. The resolution is being corrected. I'm told that the only way to launch a syntax file as a batch job from an SPSS client is to use a production job. Instructions for setting up production jobs are given in the SPSS Help.

Note, FWIW, that using Basic or Python scripts or Python programs, you can invoke SPSS v 16 or 17 and run jobs without going the production-mode route.
