![]() The Annotation window opens for you to enter a note. To open the Annotation window, click the code reference you just applied in the study window (the "MEMO – initial thoughts" or similar memo code) to select that code. Create the Annotation to be associated with the MEMO code In the Code Book window, select the "MEMO – initial thoughts" code, then click the Apply Code button at the top of the windowħ. With the appropriate source material selected, drag the "MEMO – initial thoughts" code from the Code Book to your Sources WindowĢ. Apply the "MEMO – initial thoughts" code (or whatever you have chosen to name your memo code)Īpply this to the source material selection in either of two ways:ġ. ![]() Select the source material you want to code (click and drag from the beginning of the passage you wish to select to the end).Ħ. For more information about navigating through cases, see the Study Window topic in the Help system.) For example, if examining Case B's "GP2 EMPLOYED_URBAN.docx" file, navigate to the "GP Employed Urban" case so that your memo code will be applied to the correct case.ī. (The case name appears near the top of the study window. Make sure that your study window is showing the case you want to associate the source file with. (See the "Text Source Window" information in the "Windows" topic in the HyperRESEARCH Reference section of the Help system for more information.)įollow these steps to record an annotation attached to specific source material in the text file:Ī. You may move the source windiow, resize it, change the default font, or change the font size. Adjust the source window to maximize readability. Use the "Open Source File" button at the top right corner of the Sources List window to open the selected source, ready for reading and coding.Ĥ. HyperRESEARCH does not look in subfolders of the folder you select, so to add your source files, they all should be on the top level of the folder HyperRESEARCH adds all the readable text files in the folder. Select the folder that contains your source files. ![]() If you prefer, you can use Add New Sources From Folder to easily add a large number of sources as a single batch. You can add any source that HyperRESEARCH can use (see File types in the HyperRESEARCH Reference section of the Help system). Use Add New Source File to add a specific source file to your list of sources. If the source file you would like to review is not listed, use the Sources drop-down menu, located at the top left of the Sources List window (above the source list), to add sources. (See Exercise 8 in Chapter 5.) The list includes all files you have opened using the Sources menu while your study was open, whether or not you’ve coded material in the file. The Sources List shows all the sources that are referenced in your study. Open the Sources List (Choose Sources >Sources List) Examples include "MEMO – initial thoughts," "MEMO – methodology," "MEMO – To Do," "MEMO – relationship," "MEMO – category," and so on.įor this exercise, create a new code and name it "MEMO – initial thoughts".Ģ. ![]() This will allow you to analyze subsets of your memos based on the categorizations you use in naming y our memo codes. Name each code in a way that a) indicates it is a memo and b) identifies the nature of the memo. Create a "memo" code in your code bookĬreate one or more new codes to use when creating annotations and memos. This allows you to create annotations associated with specific data segments prior to beginning the actual coding process.ġ. When doing an initial review of your material, you can create general "memo" codes to keep track of the annotations you wish to associate with specific source material selections. (This is true for all source material, whether the source file is text, image, audio, or video.) To create a memo associated with a data segment, you will need to first assign a code to the selected segment. Each code, in turn, is associated with a case. ![]() HyperRESEARCH's annotation feature associates each annotation with a code applied to selected source material. ![]()
