I woudl like to know how I can save the matched pairs data file with syntax. That is After the PSmatching has run it creates a mathed pairs data file. I want to capute this data files for other work. However the data file name seems to be aassigned with a random number generator. How can I give the mathed pairs file a specific name so that I can save it?
The plugin at this point does not allow user to specify filenames for the output datasets. It was hardcoded to “prefix+random number” because we want to prevent overwriting previously generated output datasets. Otherwise, the situation may happen when a user do not pay attention to the generated datasets when playing with the plugin. That would cause strange errors.

Thank you in advance for your help
Here is my syntax
PSMATCHING3
/VARS
TREAT = tx
COVS = dropout race Znatlbased pov
/MATCHIT
MATCH=NEAREST
EST =LOGIT
DISCARD = NONE
MORDER = LARGEST
RATIO = 4
CALIPER = 0
/PLOT RESOLUTION = 96
/OUTPUT PS PAIRED.
