Variable Lists. Controls display of variables in dialog box list boxes. You can display
variable names or variable labels. Names or labels can be displayed in alphabetical
order or in file order, which is the order in which they actually occur in the data file
(and are displayed in the Data Editor window). Display order affects only source
variable lists. Target variable lists always reflect the order in which variables were
selected.
Session Journal. Journal file of all commands run in a session. This includes
commands entered and run in syntax windows and commands generated by dialog
box choices. You can edit the journal file and use the commands again in other
sessions. You can turn journaling off and on, append or overwrite the journal file, and
select the journal filename and location. You can copy command syntax from the
journal file and save it in a syntax file for use with the automated Production Facility.
