QTips
- When working with multiple data sources, make sure the sources ask for the same type of information and have the same answer choices. If you’d like to make a comparative table, a Cross Tabulation would be more appropriate.
- If a table is too small to hold all of its data, it will display as a torn sheet of paper at the bottom. Simply resize to show all information.
- Right-clicking on a table will bring up the same editing and layout options, plus the option to create a new drill-down report based upon its data.
