Data, the DataFerrett Typing

Welcome to the BetaDataFerrett for TheDataWeb

What is BetaDataFerrett?

The BetaDataFerrett is the testing version of the DataFerrett. This version will incorporate the latest bug fixes, enhancements, and new functionality that will be rolled into the DataFerrett after testing has been completed. The DataFerrett helps you locate and retrieve the data you need across the Internet to your desktop or system, regardless of where the data resides.

DataFerrett is a unique data mining and extraction tool. BetaDataFerrett allows you to select a databasket full of variables and then recode those variables as you need. You can then develop and customize tables. Selecting your results in your table you can create a chart or graph for a visual presentation or into an html page. Save your data in the databasket and save your table for continued reuse.



DataFerrett users are encouraged to run the BetaDataFerrett version before it is officially released to the public as a new updated version. Please, remember to periodically run previously saved sessions as well as create new sessions to compare and and sync your tabulations and databaskets.
