- ----------------------------Original message----------------------------
-
- I'm attempting to get a breakdown by state and then race from STF1C
- (US Summary) disc. It is easily available in the printed summary, I know,
- but my students really want to use the CD. This seems like something
- go should do!
-
- I've tried Browsing by US, state and region. All I come up with are
- the geographic components set by Census (rural, urban, MSA/CMSA) for
- either the whole country, region, or state. No state to state
- comparisons.
-
- I've started downloading files from the Census BB to update my Extract
- to where I can search STF1C but it's going to take a while. My modem
- downloads at 2400 baud and I get an hour at a time (takes forever).
-
- Anyone have any luck doing this? I know I could look at every STF1A
- disc and find the state info there, or print out every race table on STF1C
- but there just seems like there HAS to be an easier way.
-
- Any help would be much appreciated. I'll post back to the list if
- we have any luck.
-
- Thanks
