Hi Xerox,
With no other info about your installation I can't see an
error. Be sure that your spreadsheet file has the variable
names in the first row. When importing you have to give the info
via the menu that your data start in the second row and have to
tick the options that the variable names are in the first row
(last line on the entry page, below the date window).
Also look that the decimal sign goes with the language you use
for PSPP. An example: If you have a comma as decimal sign in the
imported file and use the PSPP English-language version you have
to change it before importation into a full stop.
Besides the menus you can you use the GET
DATA command .
I don't see whether pspp imports files with the csv ending, but if
you change the name in *.txt there will be no difficulty when
importing.

I just installed "pspp-20170909-daily-64bits-setup". It
installed and then I run it. I tried to import an excel
file. After selecting the excel file the prompt goes gray
with no additional information on screen. At that time the
screen only shows "Select file to import" on the upper left,
and the cluster of "reset", "next", "back:, "finish", and
"cancel" on the lower right. I tried just clicking on next
until "apply" option showed, clicked it then clicked finish.
The 1st line of my data contains the header titles for the
entries below them. But pspp reads them as entries rather
than title or variable name. The excel file I imported is in
csv (ms-dos) and is 70.2 MB big.
Where did I go wrong? Did I miss something during the
installation process or do I need to fix something with my
excel file?
