How to Transform, Summarize and Reorganize Data using The QI Macros.

The QI Macros contains the following tools to help you transform or reorganize your data:

Stack/Restack increases or decreases the number of columns your data is organized into. It can take one column of data and "stack" it into multiple columns or it can take multiple columns of data and restack it into one column.

Get Sample selects a sample from a table of data. Select the data, then select Get Sample. The macro will prompt you for the # of samples and whether you want a Random or Periodic sample. A periodic sample of 3 will give you every 3rd item from your data.

Paste Link/ Paste Link Transpose: Excel lets you paste link and paste transpose but it doesn't let you do both at the same time. Use these functions to link your data to a QI Macros fill-in-the-blanks template. Update your data sheet and the template and chart are automatically updated. Use these function to build dashboards.

Box Cox Transformation multiplies the selected data by a transformation factor. The purpose is to transform non-normal data into data that is closer to normal.

Count Words in a Table will count the number of times a word or two word phrase appears in your data.

Cross Tab Pivot Table Wizard makes it easier to run Pivot tables on your data.

See www.qimacros.com/free-excel-tips/data-transformation.html for further information on these tools.
