Is it possible in SPSS to recode a variable into a specific value. For example something like the following (which does not work but I think gets at conceptually what I'm trying to do.

recode Comp_Decision (0 = Error_Code).

In theory I'd like to see Comp_Decision set to Error_Code but only if Comp_Decision is currently 0. I can think of a number of other ways to get this done, but wanted to know if it can be done with recode.

Thanks, Besheer
