On a second pass, if a format of that name already exists, it won't write over it and also it won't just "skip it" and rely on the existing format of that name.
To truly clear this out before re-importing, you would need to delete the existing format first. Calling all SAS users! We now have even more FREE knowledge journeys. Learn more. Choose Your Journey.

Saving the SPSS labels as data values With the SEXA format as a "user-defined" format, we need to keep the format definition accessible whenever we use the data set, otherwise the coded value labels will get lost.
Hi Chris, Many thanks for the informative post. I didn't know that I could still use the name of the variable in the syntax, even though only the label of the variable appears. Thanks for that. However, in my data-set the number of variables exceeds So it is impossible to remember the actual name of all the variables, and since the labels are too long, it is not convenient to use them in the syntax. Therefore I need to "switch" from showing the labels, to showing the names, without deleting the labels.

However, with this way as you mention the labels and values are deleted. But in my dataset there are more than variables, and is important to keep both the name of the variable - so that in the editor i can refer to them with a short name -, and the label - in order to be able to correctly identify each variable with an explanatory description.
Therefore I am looking for a code to "switch" from showing the labels in SAS, to showing the names, instead of just deleting the labels. Where are you trying to make this change, in a report or when you open the dataset? Hildy, I think that the formats limit is an internal value that cannot be extended. Beyond this, if you want to provide more specifics with code examples and perhaps some sample data, I recommend that you work with SAS Technical Support. I use EG 5.
However, some text fields are being truncated length attribute is not being assigned correctly. Is there anyway to manipulate modify import procedure to assign the correct lenght of each field?
Thanks in advance. Is there a slick way to right-click a dataset in EG 4. It's a nice suggestion, but right now EG does not support export to Stata directly. However, you could use a technique such as this to get the job done.

Hi, I came across this page looking for information on converting sav and sps files to some usable form for JMP, since JMP doesn't recognize them in their original form.
