long string variable split when reading in SPSS #236
Comments
I experience the same problem. Can someone please have a look at this? |
Interesting. It looks like SPSS is using internal names |
solved in version 1.1.9 |
I was made aware that the issue is gone when reading the file with Pyreadstat, however, the issue is still there when reading the file with SPSS. |
hi
When writing a sav SPSS file with Readstat containing long string variables (long_readstat.sav), Readstat reads them correctly, however SPSS splits it (LongString2, "V2_A1", "V2_A2", "V2_A3"), this does not happen if the name of the variable is shorter (LongStr instead of LongString2).
For comparison the same content but written with SPSS (long_spss.sav) it opens correctly both in SPSS and Readstat.
original reports: Roche/pyreadstat#119
