SPSS® 12.0 Command Syntax Reference

1494 SET
• You can specify any length from 40 through 999,999 lines. If a long page length is specified,
the program continues to provide page ejects and titles at the start of each procedure
and at logical points in the display, such as between crosstabulations.
• To suppress page ejects, use keyword NONE on LENGTH. The program will insert titles at
logical points in the display but will not supply page ejects.
• You can specify any number of characters from 80 through 255 for WIDTH. The specified
width does not include the carriage control character. All procedures can fit the output to
an 80-column page using a 10 pt. fixed pitch font.
HEADER Subcommand
HEADER controls whether the output includes headings. The HEADER subcommand applies
to both default headings and those specified on the TITLE and SUBTITLE commands. This
command applies only to text output from this program. The default is NO.
NO Suppress headings in text output. All general headings, including pagination, are
replaced by a single blank line.
YES Display headings in text output.
BLANK Suppress headings but start a new page.
CCA, CCB, CCC, CCD, and CCE Subcommands
You can specify up to five custom currency formats using the subcommands CCA, CCB, CCC,
CCD, and CCE.
• Each custom currency subcommand defines one custom format and can include four specifications
in the following order: a negative prefix, a prefix, a suffix, and a negative suffix.
• The specifications are delimited by either periods or commas, whichever you do not want
to use as a decimal point in the format.
• If your custom currency format includes periods or commas that you need to distinguish
from delimiters (e.g., the format includes a period but the decimal indicator is a comma; so
the period must also be used as the delimiter), use a single quote as an escape character
before the period or comma that is part of the custom currency format.
• Each currency specification must always contain three commas or three periods. All other
specifications are optional.
• Use blanks in the specification only where you want blanks in the format.
• The entire specification must be enclosed in single or double quotes. If the format includes
a single quote as an escape character, the entire specification must be enclosed in double
quotes.
• A specification cannot exceed 16 characters (excluding the apostrophes).
• Custom currency formats cannot be specified as input formats on DATA LIST. Use them
only as output formats in the FORMATS, WRITE FORMATS, PRINT FORMATS, WRITE, and
PRINT commands.
