Subject:   Output Tables to Excel
Content-Type:   TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

I routinely generate six fairly complex tables for a client using the General Tables facility within SPSS 9.0. Now they would like these same tables in Excel format, i.e., as sheets within an Excel workbook. The tables are generated within a production setup. My question is: how do I do this? Is there any way, without manual pointing and clicking, to select each of the tables and plunk them into an Excel spreadsheet? I suspect that a script program is what I need. I know syntax inside and out, but the script language remains a mystery. Can anyone give suggestions on my problem or a jump-start on scripting? (I know I could aggregate the data and export to Excel with Save Translate, but this seems archaic.) Thanks in advance. Paula Pelletier * Institutional Research * SUNY at Stony Brook
