merge .spo files

Myles Gartland
I have two output (spo) files for a single project. I want to put all the
output in a single file for organization purposes.

However, I cannot figure out how to either move one to the other or merge them.

Any assistance?

Thanks

Re: merge .spo files

Maguin, Eugene
Myles,

There may be much better ways to do this (and I hope somebody will point
them out) but I've noticed that I can copy items from the left side pane of
one file to the left side pane of another spo file. I haven't done this for
a while but it seems to work better if you 'close' or 'minimize' the items
to be copied and the item in the new file that the copied item is to follow.
I know that's just perfectly clear.  Said another way, it seemed that if
items were 'expanded' in the receiving file, the order got jumbled up.

Open both files in SPSS. Select all objects in one file, copy them to the
clipboard, and then paste them into the other file.
