Spss Sav File Format
A description of the SPSSsavfamily formats is available in the Developers Guide for the open-source GNU PSPP application. GNU PSPP is a program for statistical analysis of sampled data, intended as a replacement for the proprietary SPSS. It claims to use syntax and data files which are compatible with those of SPSS. The DBMS=SPSS specification uses SPSS file formats to access data in SPSS.sav files on UNIX and Microsoft Windows operating platforms. SAS PC Files Server (DBMS=PCFS) The DBMS=PCFS specification uses the client/server model to access data in SPSS.sav files on Microsoft Windows from UNIX or Microsoft Windows 64-bit operating environments. SPSS 7.0 (.sav). Version 7.0 format. Data files saved in version 7.0 format can be read by version 7.0 and earlier versions but do not include defined multiple response sets or Data Entry for Windows information. SPSS/PC+ (.sys). SPSS/PC+ format. If the data file contains more than 500 variables, only the first 500 will be saved. Of Psychology 4600 Sunset Ave. Indianapolis, IN 46208 (317) 940-9266.

You are welcome.
You mentioned elsewhere in the thread that you are working in a
LAMP environment. If the P in your LAMP stands for Perl, then
you might take a look at the Perl module for working with SPSS
.sav files that is included in the Git repository for GNU PSPP.
With this module, it is pretty easy to work with .sav files. For
example, you can build a very simple-minded web service for
dumping out .sav files as comma-separated fields with the
following Perl program (which can be tried out at
http://pspp.benpfaff.org/conversion.html):
#! /usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI;
use PSPP;
use Digest::MD5;
$CGI::POST_MAX = 10 * 1024 * 1024; # max 10 MB posts

/download-video-lucu-banget.html. my $q = new CGI;
if ($q->param('file')) {
my $temp = $q->upload ('file');
Spss Sav File Format Example
my $ctx = Digest::MD5->new;
$ctx->addfile ($temp);
my $digest = $ctx->hexdigest;
my $file = '/home/www-pspp/input/$digest.sav';
seek ($temp, 0, 0);
open (FILE, '>', $file);
my $s;
while (sysread ($temp, $s, 4096)) {
syswrite (FILE, $s);
}
close FILE;
Spss
my $reader = PSPP::Reader->open ($file);
my $dict = $reader->get_dict ();
print 'Content-type: text/plainrnrn';
while (my @case = $reader->get_next_case ()) {
my @values;
for (my $i = 0; $i < $dict->get_var_cnt (); $i++) {
push (@values, PSPP::format_value ($case[$i], $dict->get_var ($i)));
}
print join (',', @values), 'n';
}
}
The Perl module is pretty experimental, so it is not unlikely
that there are bugs that cause problems in production use. We do
accept bug reports, though.
