Click on the Time Period and Measure selection bar, below, to select the time period you want to query (PROVISIONAL data from years 2009 and later or FINAL data from 2000 to 2008) and your measure of interest (for example, Counts or Crude Rates). Use the hierarchical folder tree to navigate to the query module that will meet your needs. To see folder contents, click on the folder icon. Clicking on the folder again will hide the menu folder contents.
