HLINES= heading lines in output files = Yes

To facilitate importing the IFILE=, PFILE=, SFILE= and XFILE= files into spreadsheet and database programs, the heading lines can be omitted from the output files.

 

HLINES=Y  Include heading lines in the output files (the standard)

  In IFILE= and PFILE=, specifying HLINES=Y also puts ";" at the start of missing, deleted and extreme lines.

  For simulated data files, SIFILE=, HLINES=Y puts the person generating value in each data line.

HLINES=N  Omit heading lines.

 

Example: I want a tab-separated score-to-measure file, without the column headings:

  SCOREFILE=mysc.txt

  HLINES=NO

  CSV=TAB
