Creating a cross-tab (AskiaVista)
To create a new cross-tab definition in AskiaVista:
- First, ensure you are in
Cross-Tab def view: in the View menu at the top of the screen, select Cross-Tab Def.
- At the top of the screen, click
New. Note that any table definition you currently have open will be lost (if it has not previously been saved to a portfolio; see saving a crosstab to a portfolio for details).
- To add questions/loops to your table, simply drag and drop them from the question list (in the left-hand panel) into the table view, or to the rows/columns/edges panels. Note that you cannot add open text questions to a cross-tab, although you can add them to raw data tables.
Note: as well as creating cross-tabs, you can also create tables of raw data. For details, see
creating raw data tables.
