Search and Filter Variables

The Variable List in MAXQDA Stats can be searched and filtered exactly as in MAXQDA. Clicking on the Search  icon in the toolbar at the top of the window opens a search list in which a search query can be entered, whose occurrence will be evaluated in all columns. To search in a specfic column, right-click the column header and select Search.

Likewise, the filter function can be applied to a specific column:

  1. Right-click on the column header.
  2. Select Filter.
  3. Enter the filter criteria and click OK.
Enter filter criteria

The status bar at the bottom right of the window displays the number of variables that fulfill the selected criteria.

To turn the filter off and on as required, click the Filter  icon in the toolbar above the Data Editor. By clicking the  icon, all filters will be deleted.
