I assume you are using the syntax provided in a previous posting.
Rather than specify MATRIX OUT (filename)
use MATRIX OUT (*)
Then use MGET  /type= corr /file= * ...


 

   
 
 
    The syntax below get this message.
     
      >Error # 31 in column 25.  Text: correl
      >File not found.
      >Execution of this command stops.
      Run MATRIX procedure:
      >Error encountered in source line #   349
     
    matrix.
        mget /type= corr /file= correl .
     
     
      The dataset shows up when I click <window>.
     
      The syntax works when I specify the file as
      'c:\temp\correl' rather than by the data set name.
     
      In MATRIX is it possible to specify a dataset rather than a disk
      file?
     
      If so, how would I change the syntax above.
     
      Thanks
