Save translate outfiles (excel) using a filter variable

About two months ago I wrote an answer to a similar question:

 

It's possible to create a multiple sheet excelfile by saving your data with the function ‘file’ -> 'export to database'. You have the option to save the data in a sheet with a name you choose. Unfortunately you have to do this for every sheet, so in your case you have to do this for every country and you have to select the country first.

But it is possible to save those different sheets in the same excel file.

 

Another member of SPSSX-L wrote an answer too, but then you have to use Python.

My preference would be separate sheets in one workbook, but either would be helpful [though with separate files the filename would be where I’d need country to be slugged in as the values].

What do you mean by “multiple Excel sheets”? Separate sheets in the same workbook/file or separate files?

Hi all-

I’m using SPSS 15 and hoping to save data from SPSS into multiple excel sheets.  The variable I want to split by is a string & named country.

And I’d like each sheet including only (and ideally named with the value of) a particular split of the full file. 

Thanks,

Brian
