Group: Forum Members Posts: 10, Visits: 76	Does anyone know of an easy way to change item variable names on import into SPSS? Maybe just a trick to get rid of the "radiobuttons" or "textbox" in front of each variable name? The only other thing I can think of is to go through and do it by hand. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

See e.g. http://spssx-discussion.1045642.n5.nabble.com/How-to-change-variable-names-in-SPSS-if-you-have-many-variables-td1085965.html or https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21487520 Should you require further details, they should be available in the SPSS documentation or via other product support resources offered by its vendor (IBM).
