             /DROP=var_list
             /KEEP=var_list

The EXPORT transformation writes the active file dictionary and data to a specified portable file.

This transformation is a PSPP extension.

It is similar to the EXPORT procedure, with two differences:

XEXPORT is a transformation, not a procedure. It is executed when the data is read by a procedure or procedure-like command.
XEXPORT does not support the UNSELECTED subcommand.

See EXPORT, for more information.
