Hello Bernard
You can use a global variable
In the before file check block define your variable (same type as the one you want to access) DEFINE varfrommain ### GLOBAL
in the field mainvar add this line to copy the value in the Global variable varfrommain = mainvar
Then in the related file you can access the varfrommain values
Hope this would help :)

Hello, 1- In Analysis, the width of variable codes is 20 characters with "freq" or "tables". Is it possible to increase this width ? I have variable codes> 20 characters.
2- In related file ("daughter file"), I need, for a calculation, of a variable in "father file". How to proceed ?
Thank you.
