MKT 324 XL Data Analyst Assignment 1 You have the necessary XL Data Analyst Files and are now ready to assignment. Also, you will be using this data in upcoming assignments, so please make sure you keep two copies of this data. Keep a set that in case one gets corrupted you can replace it with a clean file. When you open the data files, you may see the following across the top of the page: “Security Warning: Macros have been disabled” Enable Content Go ahead and click on the Enable Content Button. This will allow you to use the Data Analyst software in conjunction with this data. You will notice when you open a file that there are two worksheets: Data and Define Variables. The Data worksheet is the actual data that accompanies the project. The Define Variables is the ‘code book’ for the data. You will learn more about code books later but they are simply the instructions on how to code a survey when it is returned. The code book is important for you so you can make sense out of the Data file. Review both. Complete the following projects:
