Reordering ordinal values

PeterD — Sat, 10 Jun 2023 23:21:20 GMT

I have a dataset that was pulled from Survey Monkey and there are a variety of answers to questions that are ordinal--and not well ordered.

For instance Purchase Intent has five values--JMP defaults to order alphabetically (which makes no sense of course)

Definitely would

Definitely would not

Might or might not

Probably would

Probably would not

-- how can I reorder this more logically so that when I show the analytic results with values in the logical order?

Definitely would | Probably would | Might or might not | Probably would not | Definitely would not

Go to the column header. Right Click and select "Value Order". It will let you set the order of the values.

Let me help you out some more. The Discovering JMP Document, under the Help pull down menu gives one a real "leg up" when learning JMP. I strongly suggest you take the time to read through it! It will make you a far more efficient JMP user in the shortest time possible.
