Barb,

I believe you are asking where your opening Nemeth Code indicator and Nemeth Code terminator should go when you have the following scenario:

  • a boxed table
    • preceded by a table heading that is all text
    • followed by material that will be in UEB
    • with row headings that are words
    • and entries that are all tally marks

In this scenario, I would put the opening Nemeth Code indicator and its required following blank cell in the first three cells of the opening box line, after the table's heading. And I would put the Nemeth Code terminator and its required preceding blank cell in the last three cells of the closing box line. Then I would uncontract all the row headings [and eat a cookie in celebration].

I hope that helps! Thank you for the question.
