Spss data file drivers

Note that the admin subdirectory also contains a script for stopping the daemon stopStatisticsDataDriverService. Change directories to the admin subdirectory of the installation directory 3. Stop the driver daemon by running the stopStatisticsDataDriverService. Service Host The host name or IP address of the computer on which the service driver is running. If the service is running on the same machine as the client, you can use the default setting of localhost.

Chapter 2. The default port number is automatically entered. Unless the port number was explicitly changed, keep the default. Instead, the application that supports JDBC has a specific method for configuring the driver.

You will need the following information. Driver class This is com. If the file is not password protected, these properties are unnecessary. In the installation directory, you can find an example odbc. Driver This points to the ivoa Host The host name or IP address of the computer on which the service driver is running. Port The port number on which the service is listening for connections.

You also have the option of using the driver without a DSN. The advantage of using the driver without a DSN is that you can easily change the data source without editing an existing DSN or creating one for the new data source. This specifies the location of the oadm. It is located in the cfg sub-directory of the driver installation directory. This specifies the treatment of user-defined missing values.

If it is set to 0, user-defined missing values are read as valid values. If it is set to 1, user-defined missing values are set to system-missing for numeric variables and blank for string variables. The user name for the password-protected data file. The password for data file. The SQL subcommand uses standard SQL syntax to specify the variables fields to include, the name of the database table, and the case record selection rules.

In this example, the variables age, marital, inccat, and gender. The Cases table contains the case data values. In this example, males over 40 years of age. The host name or IP address of the computer on which the service driver is running. The port number on which the service is listening for connections.

The default is shown in the example. The rest of the example is that same as it was for the standalone driver. The only difference is that file paths are relative to the computer on which the service driver is running. The tables provide detailed information about variables, cases, attributes, multiple response sets, and variable sets. In many situations, you can use the CasesView table by itself. This table retrieves all cases and displays data value labels if available. Table 1. The size is set to the maximum string length of the encoding format.

Table 2. Variables Table. The size depends on the maximum variable name string length for all variables in the data file. The size depends on the maximum variable label string length for all variables in the data file. Variables Table continued. Refer to the Universals section of the Command Syntax Reference for information about the specific formats.

See the description of Format for the code keys. This is the order in which the variable appears in the data file. If this field is NULL, there are no value labels defined for this variable. The size of this field depends on the maximum variable name length. Chapter 3. Table 3. The size depends on the maximum string length of all labels for the variable. Attributes Table The Attributes table identifies the defined data file attributes.

Table 4. The size depends on the maximum size of all attribute name lengths. Table 5. The size depends on the maximum size of all variable name lengths. AttributeValues Table The AttributeValues table defines the values for all data file and variable attributes in the data file.

Table 6. Table 7. MrSets Table. Table 8. Cases Table The Cases table identifies the cases and values in the data file.

The column types and sizes are based on the value of the Type column in the Variables table. If the data file contains elapsed time variables, the values for these variables will not be correct if the time is greater than 24 hours. You should use the CasesElapsedTimeView table to get the correct elapsed time values. Table 9. Table If value labels exist for the variable, the label instead of the value is used.

The CasesElapsedTimeView table exists only if there are elapsed time variables in the data file. Extensions Table The Extensions table stores any extensions associated with the data file. The size depends on the maximum content size of all extensions. TrendsInfo Table. The size depends on the maximum length of all Trends date variable names in the data set. This value depends on Type. If Type is 6 week , a value of 2 equals 2 weeks.

Welcome to SPSS. Click here to login or register on SPSS. Please refer to the product documentation for supported drivers. The standalone driver provides ODBC support without requiring installation of additional components. Service Driver. The service driver handles data requests from the service client driver, which may be installed on the same computer or on one or more remote computers. Thus you can configure one service driver that may be used by many clients. If you put your data files on the same computer on which the service driver is installed, the service driver can reduce network traffic because all the queries occur on the server.

Only the resulting cases are sent to the service client. If the server has a faster processor or more RAM compared to service client machines, there may also be performance improvements. Service Client Driver.
