From the Home screen or a program, use the NewData command.
For example:
NewData temp1, time, temp
creates a data variable called temp1 in which time is in column 1 and temp is in column
2.
From the Data/Matrix Editor, create a new, empty data variable with the applicable
name. For each CBL 2 list that you want to include, define a column header as that
list name.
Note: To define or clear a column header, use . For more information, refer to the
Data/Matrix Editor module.
At this point, the columns are linked to the CBL 2 lists. If the lists are changed, the
columns will be updated automatically. However, if the lists are deleted, the data will
be lost.
To make the data variable independent of the CBL2 lists, clear the column header
for each column. The information remains in the column, but the column is no longer
linked to the CBL 2 list.
NewData dataVar, list1 [,list2 ] [,list3 ] ...
CBL 2 list variable names. In the new data
variable, list1 will be copied to column 1, list
2 to column 2, etc.
Name of the new data variable that you
want to create.
For example, define column 1
as time, column 2 as temp.
