Table

To view a table, choose "Table" from the "View" menu or hit the table icon in the visualization toolbar. All data tables are linked to their corresponding layers in the map and all other data views, so you can select items in the table and see them highlighted in other views.

Right clicking on column headers allows you to hide/show a column, sort the data, or invert the selection.  If any cells are selected when you click on the column header, then you will also see options to copy the selected information to the clipboard (for use in programs like Microsoft Excel), or to create a new subset geography.   Most of these options are also available if you right-click from within a cell.  You can also move dataset columns.  

You can also animate your table using controls on the Animation toolbar.

Selecting objects

To select an object, click on the row number on the left side of the table.  You can hold down the "Shift" key to select multiple consecutive objects in the table (locations), and can select a first and last object, and then release the shift key to select all objects in between.   To select individual objects (rather than all within a range), hold down the "Control" button and then click on individual row numbers.  

Moving columns

To move datasets in the table, control-click the column heading (click the heading while holding down the control key) and drag or move the column where you want it.

Sorting

Right click on the column headings to sort your data in ascending or descending alphabetical or numeric order, or to return your dataset to it's original order.  You can also sort by double-left clicking on the column header, but this will only put your data into ascending order.

Hiding data

You can hide datasets (columns) by right clicking on the table, and then choosing "Show/Hide Colunms" from the right click menu.  To hide a column, clear the check next to it in the window that appears. You can bring it back by checking the name in that same dialog.

Copy

You can copy data in tables and paste into other applications, by choosing "Copy" from the "Edit" or right-click menus or just using Control-C as you would in other software applications. Copying will only work if you have one area in the table selected (it can be many rows and columns, however).
