Where can I find the “pinning” option in SPSS 14.0.0

We got a question from Alex about the pinning option in the new spss version 14.0.0

“I’ve just moved to version 14.0.0 and am looking for the “pin”
function, which allows all columns to the left of the selected column to
be locked in place while moving through the columns to the right. As I
recall, that function used to be available by right clicking on the
right-most column to be locked. But, I can’t find that function now and
I don’t find it under the “help”-funtion. Is it really gone?”

Lucky for you the function is not gone. The old somewhat limited “pinning” feature has been replaced with far more flexible pane splitting. Go the help index and type “pane splitter” for a description on how this works. You can also use the Window>Split menu item.
