Examples (RENAME VARIABLES command)
Renaming Multiple Variables
RENAME VARIABLES (MOHIRED=MOSTART) (YRHIRED=YRSTART).
- MOHIRED is
renamed to MOSTART and YRHIRED to YRSTART. The parentheses are optional.
RENAME VARIABLES (MOHIRED YRHIRED=MOSTART YRSTART).
- The same name changes are specified as in the previous example. The parentheses are required, since variable lists are used.
Exchanging Variable Names
RENAME VARIABLES (A=B) (B=A).
- Variable names are exchanged between two variables: A is renamed to B, and B is renamed to A.
