[acs-r] Table and variable names

[M. Edward (Ed) Borasky]

I was on the webinar today and went digging for the table and variable  
name "cheat sheet". I think I've found it:

1. Go to http://www.census.gov/developers/data/. That's the  
developers' 'available data' page.
2. On the left side of the page there are some documentation links.  
Under ACS, there are two links:

    2007-2011 ACS API Variables [XML]  
http://www.census.gov/developers/data/acs_5yr_2011_var.xml

    2006-2010 ACS API Variables [XML]  
http://www.census.gov/developers/data/acs_5yr_2010_var.xml

I downloaded those and they look like a 'dictionary' of table and  
column names. It shouldn't be too hard to load these into a database.
