I'm trying do some analysis on some data from a survey we did for a
non-profit I'm working with.. I'm really struggling with the data for
one of our questions..
we asked our respondents where they get their information about
community events and asked them to check in boxes to indicate
internet newpapers flyers posters television..
i have 188 responses to the survey..
we entered this data in the database as a series of y/n checkboxes..
now I can make a query which pulls these five fields and shows me all
the check boxes but I'm having trouble figuring out how to summarize the
data..
if I put -1 in the criteria to try to just extract the check marks, I
can only do 1 field at a time... (or say not 0)
even if I do that I can't get it to count the records after I enter the
criteria.. It will happily count up to 188 with no criteria, but as
soon as I try to sort out the yes's, it doens't work ..
can someone suggest how I can count the "yes's"..
also, I'd like to count them all in one query, so that I can then use
the results to create a bar chart... to show which ways people like to
get their information the best..
with thanks
