Subject:      Creating Variables that don't show up??
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

If I create a new variable in SPSS 7.5 the data editor screen shows the
variable name and all the cases have a . for missing. If I run any
procedure, e.g., frequencies, on the variable, then the data appears
correctly.  WHY?
