SPSS Rename Variables
The RENAME VARIABLES command renames variables.
Contents
Usage
rename variables (foo bar = bar foo). rename variables (foo bar baz = ham spam eggs). rename variables (foo = ham) (bar = spam) (baz = eggs). rename variables (old1 to old5 = new1 to new5).
For the old variable names, case is ignored. For the new variable names, case is obeyed exactly.
This syntax is reused on /RENAME subcommands on many other commands.
Data Model
The RENAME VARIABLES command executes immediately and all specified renames occur simulataneously. Pending transformations are not executed and the active dataset is not read.
