If the file you are reading in has a language from a different code page, it may still be possible to use the file in SPSS. Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1258 (Vietnamese) Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1257 (Baltic) Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1256 (Arabic) Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1255 (Hebrew) Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1254 (Latin 5) Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1253 (Greek) Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1251 (Cyrillic) Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1250 (Latin 2) - Eastern Europe Microsoft Windows Codepage : 1252 (Latin 1) - Western standard For example, SPSS on an English version of Windows can read files from a Swedish operating system. Files that use a language from the same code set as you are using can be read without any special considerations. Code pages are a compilation of characters that are specific to a language or region.
How any version of Windows reads characters is based on code pages. Other versions of Windows have varying support. Windows 2000 and XP have strong support for displaying characters that are different from the native operating system. Much of how SPSS reads a file in a language is dependent on which version of Windows you are using. In the system locale mode, the following is still true for SPSS 16.0, 15.0 and earlier. Operating in Unicode mode renders most if not all of the rest of this Resolution moot. In SPSS 16.0 for Windows (Mac and Linux too) you have the option to select Unicode encoding mode rather than locale's writing system.
