Creating multiple tables with the same top variable
You may want to create several tables using the same variable or variables on the top of the table. For example, demographic variables are often combined to form a banner or breakdown, which is then used to crosstabulate a number of different variables. This topic explains how to create multiple tables, each one of which crosstabulates one variable against the same banner variables.
