Re: Export variable/dictionary list

[John Darrington]

The easiest way I know of to get a list of variable in the current dataset,
is 
 DISPLAY VARIABLES.

If  you want this information in a text file, then from the output view
window choose File|Export... and use .txt as your filename suffix.

     In my .sps file, the "export" command and the "print" command creates the
     blank text file. I've copied in the section below. There is more code above
     this section, but I don't think it's relative to this problem. The output
     viewer does not show any errors. 
     The "write outfile" command works. It produces the .dat file with data in
     it.
