I am new in this community and still not familiar with different ways how to post a thread and answer in the existing thread. I opened a thread two days ago where I unfortunately made an error in title:
I wrote: "Strane error in SPSS 27"... instead "Strange error in SPSS 27". So, this thread could not be connected (merged) with that thread which has typo in the title.
The first part of this thread with SPSS syntax is in fact the answer to John Peck's question in my earlier thread.
In the second part I attached a screenshot of the SPSS output where this strange error shows up in output when simply switching from Unicode to System Locale and vice versa.

Subject: Strange error in SPSS 27?
The line (55) that error message refers to is a part of bigger syntax file:
50 compute filt01 = 0.
51 variable labels filt01 'Na pregledu'.
52 value labels filt01 0 'bez dg' 1 'sa dg'.
53 execute.
53 if (SUBSTR(dg1, 1 ) ~= "") filt01 = 1.
55 execute.
It's strange that I receive this error in SPSS Output when switching from Unicode to System Locale? (Attachment)
