Get File command brings up correct data, but called Dataset1

[Jill Covert]

Hi,

 

I'm working on merging datafiles with Windows version PSPPIRE.exe 0.7.9-g656fc4 and am having the following issues:

 

1) When I use GET FILE in my syntax, the file with the data I want comes up, but it is named Datafile1 instead of the actual file name of what I opened--thus I have to overwrite the original file every time.

2) SAVE OUTFILE command also does not save with the proposed file name. It does save a datafile with that name--it just isn't the active file.

3) The program is consistently crashing--on an increasing level--both on my laptop with Windows 7 and my work computer--Windows XP. I noticed this when I started using GET FILE, FILE HANDLE, MATCH FILES and SAVE OUTFILE commands.

An example of syntax causing MinGW Runtime Assertion crash:

MATCH FILES
    /FILE='R:\evaluation\CBO exchange study\Data\IRC\1 Pre-training\INTP.sav'
    /IN=respid_oe
    /SORT 
    /FILE='R:\evaluation\CBO exchange study\Data\IRC\4 30-day/INT30.sav'
    /IN=respid_cw
    /SORT
    /BY respid
    /KEEP=RespID Manager Org CoeCut ColCut DetCut EvaCut CW01 CW02 CW03 CW04 CW05.
SAVE OUTFILE= 'R:\evaluation\CBO exchange study\Data\Merged Data\INTPOE-INT30CW.sav'.

I have Henry's most recent Windows build from 04/11/12. Although I was getting errors when trying to download the build yesterday on both computers ("error opening file for writing--Abort, Retry or Ignore/Skip file"--and a .dll file name), I was successful today. My other question is how do I know if I've already uploaded the most current build? Is it somehow reflected in the version name?

Thanks, as always, for your help.
Jill
