    Data missing from SPSS file

    Greetings,

    I'm currently trying to work with data files from MediaLab v.2008. I've run into a problem, though, where some of the variables that should have been written to the SPSS data files simply aren't there. The variables are present in the *.csv files, though, and the MediaLab questionnaire files are set to write the data for the relevant items, so I know that the data should be in the SPSS files.

    I've read elsewhere that the SPSS data file won't add new variables if you change the variables' names in MediaLab, but this shouldn't be the issue because I haven't changed the questionnaire, and I also made sure to remove the old data files from the experiment's directory the last time I made any changes to the MediaLab files. I'm attaching a *.csv and an SPSS file that demonstrate this issue, as well as the questionnaire files that created (or should've created) the variables in question. The problematic variables are "E1-need1," "E1-need2," "E1-need4," "E2-need1," "E2-need2,"and, "E2-need4."

    Thank you in advance for you help.
