Save Data As for Factor Analysis

You can choose from the following options for saving your data file:

To a Local Destination

Saves your data file to a local or network folder of your choice.
You can choose from the Recent folders dropdown list to locate a desired folder.
If you want to manually enter a filename, click anywhere within the File name: field and type the name. You will need to include the full filepath if you want the data file to reside in a folder other than that displayed.

Drive/Directory

Select the file path where you would like to save your new data file with the factor analysis scores and groups.

File(s)

If you would like to save your file to a filename that currently exists and is displayed in the File(s) list, highlight the filename from the File(s) list.

Filename

Enter a name for your output data file or select an existing file from the File(s) list.
You can save to the open data file.
You will be prompted with a message explaining that the original data file will be backed up with a *.bak# extension added (with # = to a number, for example, example.sav.bak1 is the first backup file created for the original data file of example.sav).
The newly created data file will automatically reopen in WinCross.
You have the option of continuing by selecting Yes or cancelling the save by selecting No.

File type

Records per case

You must specify the records per case that you want to write to the new file.
Records per case displays the totals for the open file.
Enter the number that is correct for the original data file in the Records per case field.
Records that were added using the ADDREC command should not be included in this number.

Note: When using variable type data files, Records per case is not applicable.
