Blank output viewer in SPSS 29

  • 1.  Blank output viewer in SPSS 29

    Posted Tue February 07, 2023 10:12 AM

    Hi,

    I am a student who switched form SPSS 25 to SPSS 29 (SPSS25 is uninstalled). When I do a simple analysis such as a frequency analysis, it will open the output screen after the SET PRINTBACK LISTING command suggested in an other discussion. But the viewer in the output stays empty and does not show any output. I work on Windows 10. 

    What can I do?

    Try this:

    Open a syntax window.
    Enter the command:

    OMS SELECT ALL /DESTINATION VIEWER=YES FORMAT=SPV OUTFILE="<some writeable path\some file name.SPV>".

    Then go to whatever analysis dialog(s) you want. Paste the syntax, don't run it.
    When you have done all that, go back to the syntax window and type:

    OMSEND.

    Then run everything in the syntax window.

    When it is finished running, go to File > Open > Output and navigate to where you saved that SPV. Open it and let's see what happens.
