Can I import multiple Excel ranges into SPSS?
<p>I've got an absolutely horrible dataset in Excel (13,500 variables, a lot of them irrelevant to my purposes). I need to analyse in SPSS as I have a lot of data transformations to do... but SPSS 24 struggles with a dataset that size. Well... either SPSS struggles, or my work PC does. </p>

<p>Is there a way, when importing data from Excel, to import multiple ranges? Specifically, I want Column A (my unique identifier), then several other ranges (e.g. G:AC, DD:JJ, etc.). </p>

<p><code>/CELLRANGE=RANGE</code> only seems to allow a single range.</p>
