Dear lister(s):
To code the open-end the question (verbatim) is very boring and
time-consuming.
For Example, I have some question like this:
------------------------------------------------------
Question: What is the most important thing the Canadian Government should
consider now?
Respno Question# Answer
0001 X1 I think the Health care is most urgent
0003 X2 Many people are losing their job
. . .
. . .
. . .
3987 X2 More and more immigrants from all over the word make Canada
a much worse place to live
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have been wonder whether we can make the job a little bit easy by SPSS
syntax something like this?
Computer X1=0
If "Economy" X1=1
If "Agriculture" =2
If "Health Care" x1=3
Sincerely
Hans Chen
