Hello Everyone,
Currently, I am using SPSS version 25 for a project with pretty big database where the variables get pretty big. However, I have been encountering some troubles:
- When creating or enter variable values, some cases would duplicate and overwrite other cases
- When copy and pasting, unusual characters (such as: w@ d☐@ or ...☐?) would show up and shifts cells within a case
- When saving, certain case would just disappear or would be modified with unusual characters and shifted cells
If anyone can please help me explain why these errors are occurring and how I would go about fixing them. Thank you!
If it adds to a possible reason, when I tried saving before, sometimes a warning would pop up and say “The attempt to save the data file has failed because the disk is full, an I/O error has occurred, the variable dictionary is invalid, or the task was interrupted. IF SAVING OVER AN EXISTING FILE, THAT FILE HAS BEEN LOST.” but this problem no longer seem to exist and I can save each file now but still have troubles especially in copy and pasting.
Thank you!
