Why do my values go missing when I compute variables?

    All of my variables have values. But when I go to compute a new variable they disappear. Can you assist?

    They probably have not disappeared, but computing a new variable doesn't automatically pass the data, because COMPUTE uses just-in-time computation. Run a procedure, and you will likely then see the values in the Data Editor.
