HLINES= heading lines in output files = Yes

Up  Previous  Next

To facilitate importing the IFILE=, PFILE=, SFILE= and XFILE= files into spreadsheet and database programs, the heading lines can be omitted from the output files.

 

HLINES=Y                Include heading lines in the output files (the standard)

                       In IFILE= and PFILE=, specifying HLINES=Y also puts ";" at the start of missing, deleted and extreme lines.

                       For simulated data files, SIFILE=, HLINES=Y puts the person generating value in each data line.

HLINES=N                Omit heading lines.

 

Example:        I want a tab-separated score-to-measure file, without the column headings:

                       SCOREFILE=mysc.txt

                       HLINES=NO

                       CSV=TAB

                       

0        -6.46        1.83        .28        217        85        1        2.9        1        2.9        1

1        -5.14        1.08        .81        278        50        0        .0        1        2.9        3

2        -4.22        .86        1.29        321        40        1        2.9        2        5.7        4

                       

                       with column headings, HLINES=YES, the standard:

 

";"        "KID"        "SCORE FILE FOR"

"; TABLE OF SAMPLE NORMS (500/100) AND FREQUENCIES CORRESPONDING TO COMPLETE TEST"

";SCORE"        "MEASURE"        "S.E."        "INFO"        "NORMED"        "S.E."        "FREQUENCY"        "%"        "CUM.FREQ."        "%"        "PERCENTILE"

0        -6.46        1.83        .28        217        85        1        2.9        1        2.9        1
