System

The System tab is one of the most used sections of FastStats. It shows the contents of the underlying FastStats system.

Variables Section

This section of the System explorer shows the FastStats variables organised into their folders. The icons on the left of each description indicate the type of variable. The variables type describes its contents, and the operations that can be performed on each of them.

Expand the window to see more detailed information about each variable.

Click on the search icon at the top of the screen to find a particular variable.

Drag variables or groups of variables onto the workspace or other parts of the application to use them.

Tables Section

This shows the tables defined in the system. Many count or analysis operations use this to define the resolve table. The resolve table is the system table at which you want to perform the count/analysis. More information on changing the resolve table is here.

The default resolve table is shown in bold.  You can change the default resolve table for your own login by right clicking on the desired table name and selecting the option Set as Default Table. The change will be effective when you next log into your FastStats system.
