You could use the commercial software package Stat/Transfer
(http://www.stattransfer.com/).
If you don't have SPSS software and don't have the budget to buy
Stat/Transfer, you could use the free alternative GNU PSPP
(http://www.gnu.org/software/pspp/) to open the dataset, change the ID to
a string, save it again to a different SPSS .sav file, then open it in
Stata as before.
