Look at the SAVE TRANSLATE command. Also, in SPSS 15 there is an Export to Database Wizard that makes the process much easier.

Do you get any error messages in SPSS? Errors messages from the ODBC driver will show up in the log in the Viewer.

It is better to export your data from SPSS in text file with extension .txt
or .csv. Then from ACCESS import that data into ACCESS. This is much simpler.

Hi Behnaz,
I have to do this from time to time and it is fairly easy to do. 1) Start Access and make an empty database. 2) Create a table (name not important) with at least 1 field (name and type not important). 3) Save the database and exit Access 4) Start SPSS 5) File-->Open Database-->New query... 6) Select 'MS Access Database' from the list and click OK 7) Browse to the created Access-database en click 'Open' 8) Drag the table from the left to the right pane, click Next 9) click Next, Next, Next 10) tag 'Paste it into the syntax editor for further modification', click Finish 11) Open the syntax editor 12) Change 'GET DATA /TYPE' into 'SAVE TRANSLATE TYPE' (note the disappearing of the slash) 13) Remove the line /SQL='......' 14) Add the line /TABLE="tablename" (don't use spaces as SPSS thinks that to be illegal...) 15) Add the line /MAP 16) Remove the line VARIABLE LABELS .... (don't forget the period) 17) If not allready done while opening SPSS, load the SPSS-datafile you want to export 18) In the syntax-editor: Run-->All 19) The output window should show the exported fields. 20) Open the database 21) Open the table. It should show all the data. Note that a table in Access can have no more than 255 fields... ==[Result of importing from Access]== GET DATA /TYPE=ODBC /CONNECT= 'DSN=MS Access-database;DBQ=C:\zandbak\db4.mdb;DriverId=25;FIL=MS Access;MaxBufferSize=2048;PageTimeout=5;' /SQL = 'SELECT `T1`.`id` AS `id` FROM `C:\zandbak\db4`.`Tabel1` `T1`' . VARIABLE LABELS id "id". CACHE. EXECUTE. ===================================== ==[After modification]=============== SAVE TRANSLATE TYPE=ODBC /CONNECT= 'DSN=MS Access-database;DBQ=C:\zandbak\db4.mdb;DriverId=25;FIL=MS Access;MaxBufferSize=2048;PageTimeout=5;' /TABLE="Tabel_naam" /MAP .
