Tutorial - Design

Let's begin by creating a new study. Click on the StatPac icon to launch the program. A blank Study Design screen with this header will be displayed.

A study design consists of two parts:

The first part is a description of the variables. This information is stored in a file called a codebook. All codebook file names end with a .cod extension. The right side of the screen shows the current variables in the codebook. Since we haven't created any variables, none are listed.
