    _______________________________________________________

Details:

In Select Cases dialog
SPSS has option "If condition is satisfied" 
and button "If..." below

After pressing button, it opens dialog, wich is similar to "compute variable"
dialog.

So your can predefine to compute "filter_$" variable, as SPSS do.

SPSS generates syntax like this example:

USE ALL.
COMPUTE filter_$=(VAR0001 <> '26').
VARIABLE LABELS filter_$ "VAR0001 <> '26' (FILTER)".
VALUE LABELS filter_$ 0 'Not Selected' 1 'Selected'.
FORMATS filter_$ (f1.0).
FILTER BY filter_$.
EXECUTE.

It would be nice to have this feature in PSPP too. Thanks.
