Title:
How to duplicate cases n times based on a value of a variable? 
Description:
Q. 
I need to duplicate every case n times and n is the value for 
a special variable (v1) which it varies from case to case. I tried 
loop and xsave commands but loop does not take values from variable 
names. What should I do? 
A. 
Here is syntax that will allow you to do this. In the LOOP 
command, MAX is the maximum value of the V1 variable (you may 
use a DESCRIPTIVES command to learn the maximum value. Simply 
plug this number in the LOOP command): 

LOOP id=1 to MAX. 
XSAVE outfile='test'/keep all. 
END LOOP. 
EXECUTE. 
GET file 'test'. 
SELECT IF (id LE v1). 
EXECUTE
