User could not open Excel file in SPSS.

Troubleshooting


Problem

When I try opening my Excel file into SPSS for Windows I get a 'communications error in dac proxy'. Why won't the file import?

Resolving The Problem

There may be a format setting in the Excel file that SPSS cannot translate. Try saving the file from Excel to Excel 4 format, and then opening the resulting file in SPSS
