A note on the construction of measures taking their values in a Banach space with basis.
If E is a Banach space with a basis {en}, n belonging to N, a vector measure m: a --> E determines a sequence {mn}, n belonging to N, of scalar measures on a named its components. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions to ensure that when given a sequence of scalar measures it is possible to construct a vector valued measure whose components were those given. Furthermore we study some relations between the variation of the measure m and the variation of its components.
