The Table Editor

Table editors serve to enter and represent various parameters and variables. For example, one table editor is available in the Browser. This editor allows you to list or edit single samples or sample data, or to display numerical results in a report. It also serves to determine integration, calibration, and peak table parameters.

• Appearance and use of all tables correspond to the Windows standard. Editing is by cell, column, or line.

• It is possible to move or hide selected columns and to make them visible again at the active cursor position. Adjust the column width by moving the left or right delimiter. Or else, select Optimum column width, e.g., on the View menu in the Browser.

• You can add additional lines or remove selected lines anywhere in the table.

• Most of the described functions are available on the context menu.

• You can change the font size. For example, select a smaller size to display more on-screen information.

• Press the F1 key for online Help information about a specific column.

• Press the F8 key to open an edit dialog box for a specific field. This prevents input of incorrect or invalid values and names.

• Press the F9 key to fill an entire column with the value of the current field. In this way, you can also extend logical rows of numbers. For example, if the input in the first three fields is 2, 4, and 6, the row is continued with 8, 10, 12, etc.
