You most likely do not need a macro.
Three ways are
If you have a relatively new version of  SPSS under Windows use
APPLY DICTIONARY
or
INSERT

in any version the old way works.  This is one example.

Save all your current work, then open a new instance of SPSS. cut and
paste this syntax into a syntax window and save it as 'D:\project\card
names.sps'.
value labels acard
  ' 1' 'Ace'
  ' 2' 'Duece'
  ' 3' 'Trey'
  '10' 'Ten'
  ' J' 'Jack'
  ' Q' 'Queen'
  ' K' 'King'.


Save all your current work, then open a new instance of SPSS.
Cut-and-paste then run the syntax at the end of this message.


Hope this helps.
