Re: Data Set Issue

 

Dear Knut,
Thanks very much for your help but i have one more question; I have 31
schools of which 4 of them have the same name (RC Junior Sec School)
but of different chiefdoms. Can i do a single attributecategory RC
Junior Sec School and assigned it to the various chiefdoms? Will the
schools data save separately with reference to their respective
chiefdoms or should i create attributecategory for each RC Junior Sec
School label with its chiefdom?
