Select waves...

Set which waves of data are included in your tables/chart results: data for selected waves appear in your results, data for de-selected waves do not. You can select any combination of waves in your project. This command is available only when you are working with an askiasurf (QEW) file.

Select current level...

Set the current data level.

Select current language...

Set the current language used to display the survey and its table/chart results. Note you can only select languages that are actually defined in the current survey.

Sends the selected question to the rows of the current tab template. This command is available only when a question or response is selected.

Send to columns

You may use this option to improve the performance of askiaanalyse when working either with standard surveys (.qes files) or when using askiasurf. This will reorganise the files so as to optimise their performance and may result in faster processing times, especially with larger or more complex sets of tables. It will result in the creation of some additional files:

• For .qes files, a -meta.qex file is created and a regular .dat file is created if it doesn't already exist. 
• For Surf set-ups, each QES file has an accompanying -meta.qex created; the QEW has an accompanying -meta.qewx created and a .qew-meta.dat folder is also created in same directory. 

If your data changes, use this command to re-calculate the data in all calculated variables in your survey. You do not need to use this command when new data is added, as askiaanalyse will automatically recalculate variables in this situation. You only need to use this command in the following situations:

• if the data has been modified (for example in askiaentry, or by running edit scripts), but the number of interviews has not changed;

• for questions where the list of responses depends on the data (e.g. where find all values is used), you need to recalculate to see new responses appear.
