Applying a data dictionary using SPSS for Windows

Troubleshooting


Problem

I am using SPSS for Windows and would like to copy the data properties from my Variable View from an external file, and apply it to my active dataset. I would like to preserve the value labels and formats from one dataset, and apply it to a different dataset. Is this possible to do with SPSS, or will I have to reconstruct my variables manually from the Variable View?
