Opening an Existing Data File in SPSS

When you open SPSS Program, it displays SPSS Opening Screen.

From the this screen, SPSS asks whether you want to Run the tutorial, Type in data, Run an existing query, Create new query using Database Wizard or Open an existing data source.

At the moment, we want to talk about how to open an existing data file. If you want to open an existing data file (e.g. one of the files accompanied SPSS tutorials), click on the Opening an existing data source button from the opening screen, then on More Files.

This will take you to search through the various directories on your computer to find where your data file is located. Find the file you want to use and double click on it or click on Open from your Menu. The data file will open in front of you with the Data Editor label.
