I see,
 
I think that in the directory C:\Program Files\SPSS sits an utility called 'RunSyntx.exe'.
This is a visual basic programm that tries to execute a SPSS-syntax file (it doesn't do that by it self but through the SPSS-program).
In UltraEdit you can configure an external tool that executes the programtext that at that moment is visible in the editor.
For help on this start the Help of UltraEdit en look at Contents-->Menu Commands-->Advanced Menu-->Tool configuration
 
In UltraEdit you configure an external tool via Advanced-->Tool Configuration
Type in the 'Menu Item Name' for instance 'Run Syntax' and in 'Command Line' you type:
"C:\Program Files\SPSS\runsyntx.exe"  "%f"
And of course a couple of hits on OK.
From then on whenever you have an SPSS-syntax in the editor of UltraEdit you can try to run it through Advanced-->Run Syntax (or Ctrl+Shift+0 )
 
Is this what you wanted to accomplish??
