Re: PSPP-BUG: invalid write format

[Przemek Powalko]

Hello,

I'm trying to find a workaround for it because these warnings come along with fake variable types and formats when I'm executing "display dictionary" command on the problematic file. Unfortunately, I have quite a number of such files in my database.

Is there any way to suppress the final warning "Suppressing further invalid format warnings." and let PSPP show all warnings? Can't find anything in the documentation; "set mxwarns" is close but has a different meaning.

Thank you in advance!

Asunto: PSPP-BUG: invalid write format

Hi everybody,

On opening a file I get the following warnings:

Writing data to CSV seems to work fine but I'd like to be sure whether the source file is ok. Please, look at the attachment.

Anyone help, plase? Thanks in advance!
