SPSS Value Labels
The VALUE LABELS command sets value labels.
Usage
value labels foo 1 "Yes" 2 "No" /bar "Y" "Yes" "N" "No".
Note that string variables are checked case-insensitively for value labels.
Add Value Labels
The VALUE LABELS command clears any pre-existing value labels when setting new ones. To instead add value labels, use the ADD VALUE LABELS command.
add value labels foo 1 "Yes" 2 "No" /bar "Y" "Yes" "N" "No".
Data Model
The VALUE LABELS command executes immediately. Pending transformations are not executed and the active dataset is not read.
