  • 1.  Multiple filters

    Posted Mon May 13, 2024 08:51 AM

    Hello! Is it possible to make multiple different filters in SPSS? Right now when I use the "Select cases" command to compute a filter, it makes a filter named filter_$, and if I try to make another filter with a different condition it replaces the first with the same name. I want to be able to have separate filters with separate conditions to use for different analyses, I know that multiple conditions can be done for one filter but that is not my issue. Thanks!

    The dialog box always generates syntax with the same name, filter_$, but you can use any name. in the FILTER or SELECT IF command.  Paste the syntax if you are in doubt about how to write it correctly.

    If you look in the Notes table produced with a statistical procedure, you will see the name of the filter, if any, that was applied.
