Layered Split-File Processing

Layered split-file processing can alter the basic structure of tables that you might otherwise assume have a fixed default structure. For example, a standard frequency table has only one row dimension (dimension axis="row"), but a frequency table of the same variable when layered split-file processing is in effect will have multiple row dimensions, and the total number of dimensions—and row label columns in the table—depends on the number of split-file variables and unique split-file values.
