Subject:      How to cut a part of string variable?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="koi8-r"

Hello dear list-members!
I have to solve such a problem.
I've .sav file that contains about 500 cases and only 1 string variable.
The string variable looks like 'word1 word2' where word1 is the town
and word2 is the region. I need to divide this string variable into two:
town and region.
In other words, now I have

var1
'word1 word2'

and I want to have

var1
'word1'
var2
'word2'

Can anyone help me?

Thank you in advance.
