120 character limitation using SPSS adding value labels via syntax

Troubleshooting


Problem

I am using SPSS for Windows and when I try to add a value label to a variable via syntax, I see this error message: >Warning # 4490 in column xx. >A label appearing on the (ADD) VALUE LABELS command exceeds 120 characters >in length. The label will be truncated to 120 characters. Is there a way around this?
