Dear List,

I have two data files ,

File1.sav  with variables  Var 1, Var2,Var3  ..... Var8
and
File2.sav  with variable  Var3.

I want to  perform the following task:

Keep all cases in File1.sav  for which Var2 in File1.sav = Var2 in File2.sav.

Any ideas on how to do this task.

Regards to all.
