Subject:   Is "sysfile info"-->data file possible?

We've been sent what looks like a SPSS-PC output file (suffix .se2?) which appears to be the output of a command like "sysfile info filename" The contents look like the output of a "display dictionary" command ie a list of variable names with format value labels for each variable.

Is there some way given this file alone to construct a data file with these variable names, formats etc. We're using SPSS-Windows here. Many thanks
