• An NCapture file—specify codes to code to when you use NCapture to gather web pages and social media data.

When you set up a query, you can choose to save the results as a new code. For example, you could

• Run a Text Search query looking for the terms farming and cultivation and code all occurrences at a new code called agriculture.
• Run a Coding query to find all content coded to wind power and solar power and gather it into a new code called alternative energy.
• Run a Compound query to find content coded to carbon emissions that also contains the term Kyoto agreement and code it a new code called regulating carbon emissions.
