2.Turn Processing History on or off. If you turn on, specify:

•Purge processing history— Records all processing functions performed. Stores the history log in a .CTS file and purges the history log when you close the data file.

Purging a history file does not affect the data contained in the data file. It clears the contents of the .CTS file that contains the processing history.

•Save processing history— Records all processing functions performed. Stores the history log in a .CTS file and maintains the history log when you close the data file.

If you save processing history, .CTS files can become very large. You can periodically delete older .CTS files to clear disk space.

3.If you want a reminder dialog box to appear when you close a data file that prompts you to selectively save or purge the history file, select Show Save History dialog.

4.Click OK.
