[Galderisi, Peter]

Couldn't this be done in syntax mode, using the VALUE LABELS command?

>From PSPP guidebook (same as SPSS):

VALUE LABELS
/var list value ’label’ [value ’label’]. . .
VALUE LABELS allows values of numeric and short string variables to be 
associated
with labels. In this way, a short value can stand for a long value.
To set up value labels for a set of variables, specify the variable names after 
a slash (‘/’),
followed by a list of values and their associated labels, separated by spaces. 
Long string
variables may not be specified.
Before VALUE LABELS is executed, any existing value labels are cleared from the
variables specified. Use ADD VALUE LABELS (see Section 8.1 [ADD VALUE LABELS],
page 70) to add value labels without clearing those already present.

Greetings,

When I load my survey I get the numerical values of peoples answers (e.g 1 = 
yes, 2 = maybe ...).
I then create the labels for each question and this works fine. However since 
the labels are
usually the same on multiple questions, couldnt an option be added like "copy 
labels from question X".

I have alot of questions and it takes awhile to add labels to them all.
Anyhow, just a thought.

Best wishes
Kristoffer
