Thank you for the response. I agree with you. I ran a command after the “TEMPORARY” command – but the entire data set is still missing most of the data due to my “SELECT IF” COMMAND. The workaround is I am creating separate files for each select if command I use. Bulky for now. . .
Take care,
John

Subject: Re: Temporary
If I understand your question you get the data automatically "back" as the filter command only works for the next command or procedure.
If you run
temp.
sel if (vars >=1)
freq varx to vary.
SAVE /OUTFILE={’file_name’,file_handle}
you save the complete data set without the effect of the filter.

I am using the PSPP syntax commands:
TEMPORARY
SELECT IF (VAR1 >=1)
Here is the question, I have several PSPP books. The “TEMPORARY” filter gets me the data I desired, but how do I get the data file back to the complete data set before I ran the PSPP syntax? I could not find the resolution in my PSPP books.
Take care,
John
