I am trying to match data in an experiment, created through individual input, to a payoff structure that is stored in a txt I have (successfully) loaded into zTree before.
However, I do not know, how to find the - in specific - payoff to the corresponding input in the txt file that is defined there.
The txt file looks as follows:

Within the game, the "Input" variable is generated by users and now the payoff needs to be found corresponding to the input generated. Can anyone help out here?
Thanks a lot in advance!
TABLENAME.find(condition, variable) function retrieves the first value that fits a condition.
Assuming the user has the variable MyInput in the subjects table, this program running on subjects would do the trick:
NKtable.find(Input == :MyInput, Payoff)

I have two files, the first one has the date and the second one has multiple registers.
I want to create something like this:
Input File 1:
20200509
Input File 2:
0000001
0000002
0000003
Output
202005090000001
202005090000002
202005090000003
Thank u.
Build a record of two fields. I will not give you picture clauses.
Read file one and populate field one. (end of field one stuff).
Read file two and for each record, populate field two and write an output record.
Field one never changes?
Look into JOINKEYS (FILL?) if you get a moment and your shop has it.
And the record in File one should probably be a parameter.
Yes you will need to open and close the files, use filestat, and understand what a priming read is.
If you don't mind bad style and ANS COBOL c. 1972 see

(No filestat, no exception (empty file) handling.)
Sample Sheet
How do you reference the Data Import tab and display everything in order of most recent date at the top within the Worksheet, and alphabetize the Vendor Name (column C - Worksheet)?
I have tried the SORT function but little to no luck as it just alphabetized everything in order even when referencing the Import Date from the Data Import.

FIGURE 2: Expected Outcome
To further elaborate:
This one might be tricky, but Column B will be hyperlinks and also needs to be in the correct order that also belongs to its proper data brethren. This is what I currently have and just references everything in order of new data incoming.
(=ARRAYFORMULA(IF('Data Import' !A:A<>"", HYPERLINK("Some_Website" & 'Data Import'!A4:A&, 'Data Import'!A3:A), ""))
This one I'm guessing will not only need to reference the date, but the naming order as well.
Okay. So this was resolved with the query function.

The sample sheet will remain open to those who are in need of knowing how to use it and can view how it was used.
Doing this resulted in the expected outcome. However, there is an issue.
If you have other columns you intend to put manual data entry, this entry data will remain stagnant and will not move.
Only the columns with the query formula will be dynamic and will keep getting pushed downward while your stagnant entries will remain right where they are.
I'm currently looking into Assigned Index Numbers to resolved this.
Solving the Dynamic / Static Data Alignment challenge using Alignment Index Numbers
Basically, I'm using SPSS and have a variable named AREA that includes different major counties in California. Within this variable there is a value label for "Other" and I want to be able to relabel the data to go in their respective county. I have an excel sheet with all the zip codes that fall into those "Other" counties and do have a zip code data in the file as well. There are 400+ zip codes so I'm trying to see if there is an easy alternative to having to manually type in each zipcode into syntax to recode those values.
I've tried seeing if there was a way to reference the excel workbook, but have come up empty handed.
Any guidance or approaches to this problem would be appreciated!
The data in excel has unique zipcodes with corresponding Area value in cell to the right. In the data set there may be multiple instances of each zipcode.
I have hundreds of SPSS .sav files. For each one I want to extract the variable NAMES and variable LABELS as a two column table to a csv file. I know that this is straightforward by simply copying and pasting from the "Variable view" window, but I would really like to know how to do this using syntax. Is this possible?
Many thanks in advance for any help!
You might be interested in the GATHERMD extension command, It takes a wildcard for the file names and builds a dataset with three variables: the file name, the variable name, and the variable label. You could then just save that as a csv file.
This command requires the Python Essentials available with your Statistics installation or via the SPSS Community website (www.ibm.com/developerworks/spssdevcentral).
Using native Statistics syntax, DISPLAY DICTIONARY and CODEBOOK might be helpful, but they won't give you all this information in one table.
I've posted a demo Access db at http://www.derekbeck.com/Database0.accdb . I'm using Access 2007.
I am importing an excel spreadsheet, which my organization gets weekly, importing it into Access. It gets imported the table [imported Task list]. From there, an append query reformats it and appends it to my [Master Task List] table.
Previously, we have had a form, where we would manually go through the newest imports, and manually select whether our department was the primary POC for a tasking. I want to automate this.
What syntax do I require, such that the append query will parse the text from [imported Task list].[Department], searching for those divisions listed on [OurDepartments] table (those parts of our company for which we are tracking these tasks), and then select the appropriate Lookup field (connected to [OurDepartments] table) in our [Master Task List] table?
I know that's a mouth full... Put another way, I want the append query update the [Master Task List].[OurDepartments], which is a lookup, based on parsing the text of [imported Task list].[Department].
Note the tricky element: we have to parse the text for "BA" as well as "BAD", "BAC", etc. The shorter "BA" might be an interesting issue for this query.
Hoping for a Non-VBA solution.
Thanks for taking a look!

PS: Would be very helpful if anyone might be able to respond within the work week. Thx!
