  • 1.  SPSS 29 Select cases menu

    Posted Mon February 06, 2023 02:26 PM
    I have used SPSS for 20 + years and recently upgraded to version 29.  I have found missing functionality in the select cases menu, accessed by selecting Data -> Select Cases -> If.  In the menu pop-up, the window on the right for Function Group is populated as expected, but no matter what I select in the Function Group window, nothing appears in the Functions and Special Variables window below it.  

    Is this a problem with SPSS 29 in general, or is something wrong with my installation?

    Hi. This sounds familiar. Could you open a syntax window, and type and run this:

    SHOW VERSION.

    Thanks for the help.  Unfortunately I get an error when I try to download that fix.
