6.2. Review and Audit Data: The Type Var file Editor (Step 2)

 

The goal of this step is to validate the type of the variables inside our dataset. These variables are used for the whole remainder of the analysis, so we’d better check carefully their type!

There are three ways to start the .TypeXML file Editor:

 

1. Create a new .TypeXML file using TIMi Modeler and open it directly after creation (this is normally what you just did in the previous section)

 

2. Click the TIMiQuickGuide_english_v5_img31 button inside the main menu of TIMi.

 

 

3. Double-click on a “*.TypeXML” file inside a “MSWindow File Explorer” window.
