Create Full Coverage Group
|
|
06/05/2017 |
|
Notes:
|
Creates a group that includes as many records as possible from as few terms as possible. |
|
Requirements:
|
VPv10
Will prompt for a field if list is not already open. |
|
Usage:
|
User chooses to add terms to the group from the top (most frequent) or bottom (least frequent). Script then does a second pass trying to remove terms but keep full coverage. Script can attempt to make multiple, non-overlapping groups of terms. |

Export Title List
|
|
07/18/2013 |
|
Notes:
|
Export to MS Word a formatted list of titles in each group from the selected field. |
|
Requirements:
|
A title field exists and groups exist in the selected descriptor field. |
|
Usage:
|
When there are too many records to read in a fancy printed list, export just the titles. This is specifically intended for exporting factor groups since the titles are sorted by the number of grouped terms they include. If you allow titles to be exported to multiple groups, titles will be prefaced with an asterisk after they have appeared in another group. You also have the option to list titles not affiliated with any groups at the end of the document if you want the document to include every title in the dataset. |
