Hi
This can be done by Nesstar Publisher. As part of the process, the software
will also calculate frequencies and descriptive statistics and add to the
metadata (optional).
The Nesstar Publisher can serve as general data/metadata entry,
transformation and editing tool, independently of it's role in the overall
Nesstar system.
I have added a power-point series describing the latest version.
Regards,
Jostein Ryssevik
