How to create a new data set in SPSS via syntax?

Question & Answer


Question

I have data written on paper, for example: value 1 has a freq. of 92 value 2 has a freq. of 134 value 3 has a freq. of 178 I would like to create a variable with values 1 to 3 and create 92 records/cases with value 1 for this variable, 143 records/cases for value 2, 178 records/cases for value 3. How can this be done quickly (via syntax) instead of having to enter all data manually?
