Embedding a table script into a table that is generated by an embedded table script

I have a script that adds some embedded table scripts for graphing. I'm now trying to add another table script that creates a summarized table and embeds a new table script inside that new table. 

So the embedded table in dt runs fine, opens dtsum as expected except "secondary table script title" does not embed into dtsum. If I run that portion of the script (CTL+R) then it embeds to dtsum.

 

Note that I have sanitized the script to hide some company IP stuff. Are you able to see something wrong with my format/structure?

 

 

dt << New Script(
 "First level Table script title",
 dtsum = dt << Summary(
    // summary details
   ),
 dtsum << New Script(
  "Secondary table script title",
  // graph builder details here
 )
);

Add the table script to dt_sum in same table script as you create the summary. It might be enough if you just replace , with ;.

Names Default To Here(1);

dt = Open("$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp");
dt << Delete scripts(dt << Get Table Script Names); // has many of these already

dt << New Script("Create Summary", 
 Names Default To Here(1); 

 dt_sum = Current Data Table() << Summary(
  Group(:name),
  Mean(:height),
  Mean(:weight),
  Freq("None"),
  Weight("None"),
  Link to original data table(0)
 );
 
 dt_sum << New Script("Plot",
  Graph Builder(
   Size(528, 458),
   Show Control Panel(0),
   Variables(X(:name), Y(:"Mean(height)"n), Y(:"Mean(weight)"n, Position(1))),
   Elements(Bar(X, Y(1), Y(2), Legend(4)))
  )
 )
);

Re: Embedding a table script into a table that is generated by an embedded table script

Looks like your last sentence was correct, I just needed to replace the , with ;

I thought my format was good and that I had something more broken than that, I appreciate the quick response! Thanks!
