Sometimes you may want to tabulate the results of one iteration of a grid or loop against another variable. An iteration of a grid or loop is sometimes called a slice. Although you cannot create grid tables when you are using the flat view of the data, you can tabulate grid and loop slices. The examples in this topic use the Household sample, which uses the hierarchical view and cannot be represented in a flat form. However, the main principles of working with grid and loop slices are the same in both the hierarchical and the flat view and this topic explains the differences.
