To answer your question, no...I used the "VARIABLE LABELS" and "MULT RESPONSE GROUPS" commands, neither of which worked. I had never used "MULT RESPONSE GROUPS" before, but it was the only thing I could find in the Command Syntax Reference that dealt with multiple response sets.
After struggling for a few days, I finally posted here yesterday afternoon. And then (naturally), while waiting for the post to be approved, I stumbled onto the MRSETS command this morning - and the MRSETS command did exactly what I needed. So thankfully I was able to figure this out, but at least my case is now out there in case someone else ever searches for a similar solution.
Thanks for the assist though! If i hadn't stumbled onto it myself, I'm sure your mention of MRSETS would've ultimately sent me to the same place.

Hi, Sam.
To be clear, you used the MRSETS command? It does have a LABEL keyword for both the MDGROUP and MCGROUP subcommands. Do I understand you correctly that those keywords don't work?
I notice you also mentioned the MULT RESPONSE command, which MRSETS does not work with (MRSETS was specifically designed for CTABLES and GGRAPH only). You cannot save mult response groups in the SAV file; you can only save the MULT RESPONSE syntax files that create and define them.
