Hi Mahbub,
If you are copying the object from the SPSS Navigator, and in Excel you
are pasting with Edit > Paste, then neither application is misbehaving.
However, you still don't get the results you desire. To get Excel to
paste properly, use Edit > Paste Special > Text.. and this ought to
work.

Most often I use the spss output in excel.
But when I paste the output in excel the percentages are become number.
So I have to format the number into percentage in excel.
I don't know whether it is an excel problem or not.
Is there any way in spss by which the percentages are remaining as
percentages when pasted in excel?
Or is it an excel matter?
Thanks for your time.
