Manu,

you probably already know that it is just to open the file if you are
using a later version of SPSS (You can also save a file as a SAS-file
from SPSS - really smooth).

It's been a while since I upgraded SPSS (and used it), but if you're
using 10.0.7 as you said you should be able to use the command get
sas, ie.

get sas data='c:\data\filename.sd7' DSET(filename).
