save translate error

[ftr]

I doubt that my previous message arrived at the list. So I resend it again. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Hi,

I try to export a part of my sav file into a text file to treat it in another prog.

This is the syntax used:
save translate
/outfile ="C:\Users\ftr\Documents\data\EVS-WVS\WVS5Europetrustvars.csv"
/type = csv
/fieldnames
/cells = values
/keep v3 country v125 to v130.

The error message says (translated from the French text):
Creating temporary file resulted in error  (file name): No such file or directory.
Error when opening C:\Users\ftr\Documents\data\EVS-WVS\WVS5Europetrustvars.csv" when writing as a system file: success.

This is the original error message:

erreur: Création du fichier temporaire C:\Users\ftr\Documents\data\EVS-WVS\WVS5Europetrustvars.csv.tmpHyg9N8 : No such file or directory.

erreur: Erreur d'ouverture 'C:\Users\ftr\Documents\data\EVS-WVS\WVS5Europetrustvars.csv' lors de l'écriture en tant que fichier système : Success.

However, the outfile line is just a copy-paste from the get file statement. So the directory exists in exactly the wording used.
And the file name should end with the file format used in type statement, I guess.
And there isn't any csv file anywhere. So the success statement seems surprising.

So, what is wrong ? 

A second question with the save translate command.
The manual says (p.91) that missing can be recoded with the command line
/missing = recode.

But into what ?

Thanks in advance,
ftr
