SpssDataDoc Class (Python)

The SpssDataDoc class represents an open dataset.

Example: Obtaining the Active Dataset

import SpssClient
SpssClient.StartClient()
ActiveDataDoc = SpssClient.GetActiveDataDoc()

• The variable ActiveDataDoc is an SpssDataDoc object for the active dataset.

Example: Obtaining the First Opened Dataset

import SpssClient
SpssClient.StartClient()
DataDocsList = SpssClient.GetDataDocuments()
FirstDataDoc = DataDocsList.GetItemAt(0)

• SpssClient.GetDataDocuments() returns a DataDocsList object, which provides access to all open datasets.
• The GetItemAt method from the DataDocsList class is used to get the dataset with index 0 (the first opened dataset) from the list of open datasets. The variable FirstDataDoc is an SpssDataDoc object for this dataset.
