Saving Your Work

As you work with any software you should get in the habit of saving your work as you go. JMP supports several types of files, and enables you to save different portions of a session along the way. You've already seen that data tables are files; we've modified the Michelson 1879 data table and might want to save it.

Alternatively, you can save the session script, which essentially is a transcript of the session—all of the commands you issued, as well as their results. Later, when you restart JMP, you can open the script file, run it, and your screen will be exactly as you left it.

  1. Select File → Save Session Script. In the dialog box, choose a directory in which to save this JSL file, give the file a name, and click OK.
