Hi All,

Is there a way for SPSS to restrict the values entered into a specific
variable?

For example, I have a 0-4 point likert scale, and would like to only allow
0,1,2,3,4 to be entered as data, and SPSS would not allow a user to enter a
value of '5' or '22' into this variable?

I know how to do this on Excel, but cannot make it happen on SPSS.

Thanks!

Tim
