  • 1.  Viewing Syntax command in output

    Posted Tue March 08, 2022 10:14 AM
    In older version of SPSS, I was able to view the command syntax on SPSS output. In SPSS 28, I can only see it if I export the output. There must be an option someplace. Thank you

    Check the box "display commands in the log".

    Also, for procedures, the Notes table always contains the syntax for that procedure.

    And the journal file automatically records all the syntax across sessions.

    Thank you Jon. This was an easy fix. I am old school...

    In your syntax file, you can toggle this setting off and on with:

    SET PRINTBACK NONE.

    or 

    SET PRINTBACK LISTING.
