Thank you Jason and Kamugunga!

I just wanted to see how the multidimensional is used. Because there are
some tricky cases where one can design a particular data collection form as



*D*

*E*

*A*

value

value

*B*

value

value

*C*

Value

value





and others as



*A*

*B*

*C*

*D*

value

value

value

*E*

value

value

value





so what I am interested to know is what are the merits and demerits between
the two? Is this because the model (I mean the multidimensional design) is
flexible or confusing one that that kept everything open?

Thank you
Abyot.
