Subgrouping by Text Fields

To subgroup by a text field:

  1. Expand the display until the desired field is visible.
  2. Double-click the field you want to include in your subgroup to see a screen similar to the one below.

    (In the example below, we first expanded the -Patient category, then the -Biographical sub-category, then we finally double-clicked the {Tag} field.)



    Enter
    the text to evaluate for  your subgroup.

    ViewPoint does not evaluate text that occurs either before or after a percent sign (%).  For example, if you type there response A% , any response that begins with the letter A is considered a match, no matter what, if anything, occurs after the letter A.
  3. Select the operation to use:

    Greater ThanClosed  Choose Greater Than when you want your subgroup to include records that fall alphabetically after, but do not match,  your {Text} field.
     
    .

    Less ThanClosed  Choose Less Than when you want your subgroup to include records that fall alphabetically before, but do not match,  your {Text} field. .
    image\O2_CIRCLE_ON.gif
    Greater Than or Equal ToClosed  Choose Greater Than or Equal To when you want your subgroup to include records that either exactly match or fall alphabetically after your {Text} field.   .
    image\O2_CIRCLE_ON.gif
    Less Than or Equal ToClosed  Choose Less Than or Equal To when you want your subgroup to include records that either exactly match or fall alphabetically before your {Text} field.


     
    .

    When evaluating a text response, ViewPoint considers numerals first, then letters.  Upper/lower case does NOT matter. You may alter the use of the criteria with the NOT operator.  In our example, the subgroup would include patient folders that have a patient tag field that falls alphabetically on or after the text may03.
  4. CheckNot to reverse the meaning of the selected operator, if appropriate.
  5. Click [Ok] to add the response to your subgroup and return to the summary screen.

Finally, check AND or OR in the subgroup summary to indicate how this criteria should relate to the criteria directly above it.
