So far, I find this limitation to be the biggest turn-off about SPSS. I
would like to get output into a Paradox data base, and have been spending
entire days copying figures one by one into a Paradox table from an SPO
file. And the graphical output files are vast. I have 500 MB of memory, and
I'm getting a 300 MB memory charge when running SPSS with my output file
loaded. "Bloatware," as they say, lacking the basic functionality of a
10-year-old, text-based software package that would output directly to a
proper, exportable table.
