Layers can be useful for large tables with nested categories of information. By creating layers, you simplify the look of the table, making it easier to read.

  1. If the Owns PDA * Gender * Internet Crosstabulation table is not already activated, double-click the table to activate it.
  2. If the Pivoting Trays window is not visible, from the menus choose:

    Pivot > Pivoting Trays

  3. Drag the Gender element from the Column dimension to the Layer dimension.

To display a different layer, select a category from the drop-down list in the table.
