Another question for you all. Hopefully this is the proper place to ask
this.
I'm currently reformatting someone's doctoral dissertation which is rife
with tables. When they created these tables, they simply created the
number of columns they needed, but only one row.
What I'm trying to do is break the tables into the appropriate number of
columns and rows. I can do it manually, but it's VERY time consuming.
Let me give you a simple example of what I need to do:
Table 1
Variable Gen. Pop. Alert Group Total
Gender
Male 331 (84.2) 128 (68.8) 459 (79.3
Female 62 (15.8) 58 (31.2 120 (20.7)
Total 393 (67.9) 186 (32.1) 579 (100.0)
As I said, this is 4 coumns, 1 row. This is what it needs to be:
Table 1
Variable Gen. Pop. Alert Group Total
Num. % Num. % Num. %
Gender
Male 331 84.2 128 68.8 459 79.3
Female 62 15.8 58 31.2 120 20.7
Total 393 67.9 186 32.1 579 100.0
In the second example, I would like each column of numbers to be
seperate, and each row to be seperate. I've been using the draw tables
tool to do this, but some of these tables stretch over several pages, so
if there is a quicker way to reformat these, I would dance for joy.
Thanks in advance for any responses.
