Residence/Industry Lookup Tab

The "Res/Ind" tab contains definitions of Residency and Industry codes. There are seven radio buttons on this tab as illustrated below. Additions, edits, and deletions can be performed to the LMA, WIA, and MSA codes via this screen.

County/Town Codes

This screen defaults to "Cty/Town Codes" table. Your state name is highlighted in the upper browser. The County/Town Codes lookup table displays the following:

• State Table
• County Table
• Description Area

To update LMA, WIA and MSA codes:

1. Double click on the desired entry in the country table or highlight an entry in the county table and click the [Update Cty/Twn] button to access the "Update LMA, WIA, or MSA Information" screen shown below.
2. Input changes.
3. To finish click [OK] to save the changes. If you click the [Cancel] button, changes will not be saved. When a code is changed in the cty/twn table, the user is reminded to update the quarterly table by running the msa-updte.r procedure with "Create a Process".
