First, you don't need parentheses in your where clause, although they are perfectly legal.

The problem, though, is probably a syntax error in the where specification. It says

WHERE (PGM_TYP'+ '_CD = PGM_TYP_CD MC )

PGM_TYP_CD MC is not a legal expression AFAIK.

Tried numerous variations of the parentheses space changes -- no luck.

Without the selection criteria I'd get more than 20 million records. Not workable. But, thanks.

try 1) removing both left and right parentheses 2) adding a space after the right paren at the end of the last line of the sysntax

Sometime the ODBC driver is funky.

Could you run this as the sql part of the command? GET DATA /TYPE = ODBC /CONNECT = yourconnect '/SQL = SELECT * FROM CIS01.RD ' /ASSUMEDSTRWIDTH = 255.

Then you could select the records you need.

A frustrating SPSS day.

I used the wizard to generate the following simple code and got the resulting error message:

GET DATA /TYPE=ODBC /CONNECT= 'DSN=CIS01USER;UID=CIS01USER/CIS01USER;PWD=;DBQ=CIS01USER ;DBA=W;APA=T;EXC'+ '=F;FEN=T;QTO=T;FRC=10;FDL=10;LOB=T;RST=T;BTD=F;'

'BAM=IfAllSuccessful;NUM=NLS;DPM=F;MTS=T;MDI=F;CSR=F;FWC=F;FBS=64000;TLO =O;' /SQL = 'SELECT CS_ID, PGM_TYP_CD, RD_ID, DUE_DT, APPT_ID, RD_STS_CD,'+ ' PKT_SENT_DT, PKT_RCV_DT, RD_STS_DT, MAIL_IN_DUE_DT,' ' GNRT_PKT_SW, APPT_REQR_SW, MAX_DUE_DT, DUE_DT_MOVE_IND, CRT_USR_ID'+ ', CRT_DTM, UPD_USR_ID, UPD_DTM, HIST_IND, ' 'LAST_RTRV_DT, CUR_REC_SW, PKT_RCV_CMP_SW FROM CIS01.RD WHERE (PGM_TYP'+ '_CD = PGM_TYP_CD MC )' /ASSUMEDSTRWIDTH=255 .
