One of the most popular options is Bruan & Clarke's six-step approach to Thematic Analysis, and the key article on that method is available here:

Hi,

I gree about what mensioned by Mr. Morgan, also check the below lenk mayte be helpfull.

Thank you both for your helpful answers.  I read both suggestions and you have helped me significantly. I'd like to clarify (for further discussion) that my dissertation study is inductive and exploratory.

In addition to Thematic analysis method, described by Bruan & Clarke, I would like to suggest thinking about using coding and memoing techniques proposed by Kathy Charmaz in her book Constructing Grounded Theory

http://www.sagepub.com/textbooks/Book235960

Does not matter if your goal is not related to development of a theory, coding and memoing techniques are well explained and easy to implement.

You could try Graham Gibbs he has written two books, Qualitative Data Analysis: Explorations with NVivo , for the Open University Press and Analyzing Qualitative Data , for Sage - either/both of these should cover what you are after

Synthia:

See the attached paper, which describes some options other than coding.
