it seems you need to have two lists of variables either 2 vectors or 2 list in do repeat.
try this untested approach
do repeat
    newvar = bOdd1_WIN_p.1 to bOdd1_WIN_p.48/
    oldvar = bOdd1_WIN.1   to bOdd1_WIN.48.
compute newvar= 1/oldvar.
end repeat.

I would like simply to copy the reciprocal of a set of variable into another set of variables like that:

COMPUTE bOdd1_WIN_p.1 = 1/ bOdd1_WIN.1 .
COMPUTE bOdd1_WIN_p.2 = 1/ bOdd1_WIN.2 .
COMPUTE bOdd1_WIN_p.3 = 1/ bOdd1_WIN.3 .
COMPUTE bOdd1_WIN_p.4 = 1/ bOdd1_WIN.4 .
COMPUTE bOdd1_WIN_p.5 = 1/ bOdd1_WIN.5 .

but this won't work:


VECTOR bOdd1_WIN_p.(48).
DO REPEAT #i = 1 to 48.
COMPUTE bOdd1_WIN_p.(#i) = 1/bOdd1_WIN.(#i).
END REPEAT.
EXECUTE.
