Hi all,
Just a quick SPSS query:
Each member of the team has their own SPSS database (which gets data added every time a participant is seen) and there is a central one stored securely at the University.
What we want to do is merge our own databases with the central one as we go along, adding only the new participants each time we merge, i.e., WITHOUT it duplicating cases.
Is there an automated way to do this? Merging everything in one go at the end is not an option. The only other solution I see is for each person to create new empty databases for new cases every time they've merged one, which is a little laborious.
Best wishes,
Mark
