Example (PRESERVE command)

PRESERVE.
SET CD '/mydata'.
GET FILE 'mydatafile.sav'.
SET TNUMBERS=BOTH.
FREQUENCIES VARIABLES=DIVISION
RESTORE.
FREQUENCIES VARIABLES=DIVISION.

• PRESERVE stores all current SET specifications and the current working directory setting.
• SET CD changes the working directory.
• SET TNUMBERS=BOTH changes the TNUMBERS setting to display both values and value labels in pivot tables.
• The pivot table results from the first FREQUENCIES command will display both category values and labels.
• RESTORE reestablishes the SET specifications and the working directory that were in effect prior to when PRESERVE was specified.
• The pivot table results from the second FREQUENCIES command will use the TNUMBERS setting in effect prior to PRESERVE (the default is to display only labels).
