error pane in spss 17
Locked
 
|
Hello,
A couple of days ago there was a question about the syntax error pane, but till now I have not seen an answer on this. When opening a syntax, half of the screen is covered by the error pane. In the options panel I've unchecked this option but it still keeps popping up every time I open syntax. Is there a(nother) solution for this 'simple' but annoying problem?

I don't see this large error window, but you can click on the dividing bar between the error pane and the text and resize it however you like.

Hi all,
I have a straightforward data handling problem. I have data like this: Area Time Count 100 2 20 102 1 30 102 3 10 104 1 20 104 2 40 104 3 20 105 1 10 108 2 10 108 3 10 In other words, I have a certain number of areas, and data for only some of the time periods. I need to create a summary crosstab like this: Area Count(Time 1) Count(Time 2) Count(Time 3) 100 0 20 0 102 30 0 10 104 20 40 20 105 10 0 0 108 0 10 10 This should have a simple solution, but I can't wrap my mind around it right now. Any suggestions? Thanks, --S. ===================== To manage your subscription to SPSSX-L, send a message to [hidden email] (not to SPSSX-L), with no body text except the command.

Thanks to everyone for the multiple solutions! Always more than one way to skin a cat, and I'm sure each approach will come in handy in different future scenarios.

Hi all,
So it seems that Error Pane problem in SPSS17 is not solved yet... I tried resizing the error pane as Jon recommended. But when syntax file is reopened error pane takes the same size as before - approximately 1/3 of the screen. It is so annoying...... Martins

Martin,
I don't find the error pane very useful and shrunk it completely. It stays shrunk if I open a syntax file from within spss but not if I start spss by double-clicking on a syntax file. I wonder if this description fits your experience.

Yes, I have a similar experience. The Error Pane does not show up if I open a syntax file through open menu. The error pane always shows up if file is opened by double clicking on a file.
