Creating a constant column

Constant columns take a single value for all rows. They can be useful as input into computed columns or as an identifier in stacked tables.

To create a constant column:

1. Choose Table > New Constant Column…
2. Select a column type (Numeric, Text, Date, or Time of Day)
3. Enter a value and press OK

By default, the constant column’s name reflects the constant value, but you can give it a new name of your choosing. (Note that changing the name will not affect the value itself.)
