Creating new variables
It is easy to define new variables in a DMS file. For example, you can create categorical variables from numeric variables, Boolean variables for use as filters, banner variables to use during crosstabulations, etc.
This section provides some examples of creating different types of variables.
The examples in this section are included in the NewVariables.dms sample DMS file that is installed with the UNICOM Intelligence Developer Documentation Library. For more information, see Sample DMS files.
