Notes in Data TableIs there any way to write some notes somewhere in JMP and save in the data table? For instance, I would like to write some notes about the steps I took to clean the data and I would like to save it to the data table similar to saving scripts in the top left corner of the table. Thanks.
Re: Notes in Data TableHere is one way to handle it
Names Default To Here( 1 );
dt = Current Data Table();
Eval(
Parse(
"dt<<NEW script=""></NEW>
Re: Notes in Data TableI like to create a script called "run me for documentation" which uses a modal window, which can be interactive, see here:
https://www.jmp.com/support/help/zh/15.2/index.shtml#page/jmp/construct-a-modal-window.shtml
The script I create and store in the data table is :
New Window( "Message",
modal,
H List Box( Text Box( "add documentation text here" ) )
);
Re: Notes in Data Table@txnelsonoffers some simple and elegant solutions. Another might be to create a JMP Project with the data table and additional supporting documentation containing your notes like a JMP Journal, or MS Word document, or really just about any other file structure construct. If your data cleaning steps are highly repetitive and you've codified them in a JMP script, you could embed the script as well. One nice feature of a JMP Project is it's shareable with others and an easy way to package up lots of disparate file structures and work related content.
Re: Notes in Data TableGreat! Thanks for the quick response.
Re: Notes in Data TableYou can just add a New Table Variable and call it Notes: and then type anything you want into the value space for it.
Also, every column has a Column Property called Note, where you can save notes about a particular columnRe: Notes in Data TableThis is going to be useful, not having to keep notes separate! Thanks @txnelson and @teebahnson
