Re: Problem with DO-REPEAT

[John Darrington]

I don't know if it's possible to actually construct the filename the way you're 
trying to do it.

But you can certainly concatenate all the files, like this.


GET FILE='at.sav'.
DO REPEAT country  = be.sav bg.sav ch.sav.
ADD FILES /FILE=* /FILE=country .
END REPEAT.

save outfile='allcountries.sav'.
