Using the recoding feature, you can define custom categories (i.e., survey response options) for variables to use in your crosstabs, thereby simplifying your results. For example, if a variable has response option categories of Yes, No, Don't Know, Refused, and Blank, you can recode the variable so Don't Know, Refused, and Blank are in one category, so your crosstab results would only display results for three categories (Yes, No, and Recoded None). The recoded category names are fully customizable.
For more information on using the recoding feature, please visit the PDAS/RDAS knowledge base by clicking the “Help” button in the upper-right of the application. Drill down to PDAS/RDAS > Run a Crosstab > Recode Variables.

SAMHSA has partnered with the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) to host restricted-use National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) data at their Federal Statistical Research Data Centers (RDCs). RDCs are secure facilities that provide access to a range of restricted-use microdata for statistical purposes. SAMHSA is the most recent federal partner to work with NCHS in making NSDUH restricted-use microdata available to approved researchers at RDC sites.
