The Data menu provides access to the data worksheet and to summary statistics windows, and provides commands for importing and exporting data files and manipulating data within the worksheet.
• Worksheet – display the data worksheet window.
• Assign Column – assign a variate to a data sheet column.
• Sort – sort the highlighted column; the sort alternates between ascending and descending order.
• Change Decimals – increase or decrease the number of decimal places to show in a particular column; this has no effect on calculations. The cursor must be in an active worksheet window.
• Insert – insert a row or column into the active worksheet at the cursor position.
• Delete – delete the row or column that the cursor is on in the active worksheet.
• Import Data – import a data file into the active worksheet; the data file can be either a binary or text file.
• Export Data – export the contents of either the active worksheet or the active data arrays to a text file. The active data arrays are the non-missing data in the ID, X-Coordinate, Y-Coordinate, and Z-data columns of the Data Worksheet window. If the Z data have been transformed (using a transformation command), the transformed z values will be printed in addition to the original z values in the Data Worksheet.
• List Graph Values – display the graphed data. This command will be dimmed unless the active window contains a graph. You can also access this command by right-clicking on a graph. Data underlying maps can be displayed from the Map menu only from the map windows.
• Summary Statistics – display basic statistics for the primary variate (Z) and covariate (Z2) if defined.
• Secondary Variate (Z2)
• Cross Variate Regression (Z vs. Z2)
• Frequency Distribution – display frequency distributions for the primary variate (Z) and covariate (Z2) if defined.
• Quantiles Posting – display a posting (map) for the primary variate (Z) and covariate (Z2) if defined.
