+This means that the recoded values are written back to the
 source variables from whence the original values came.
 In this case, the @var{dest_value} for every mapping must imply a value which
 has the same type as the @var{src_value}.
 For example, if the source value is a string value, it is not permissible for
 @var{dest_value} to be @samp{SYSMIS} or another forms which implies a numeric
 result.

 The following example two numeric variables @var{x} and @var{y} are recoded
 in place.
 Zero is recoded to 99, the values 1 to 10 inclusive are unchanged,
