Creating and formatting Info sheets

Print this Topic

How do you create a new Info sheet?

To create a new Info sheet:

Click the New button on the toolbar, or drop the Insert menu. Choose New Info. Select whether the new sheet should be linked to a particular data table, or a global Info sheet for the project.

How do you set up Prism to automatically create Info sheets?

Prism can automatically create a linked Info sheet to accompany every new data table you create. To make this your default, click on the Prism button on the toolbar and choose Preferences.

On the Info Sheet tab, check the option to automatically create a new Info sheet for every new data table. You also can edit, add, or rearrange the standard headings that will be included.

How do you change the way an Info sheet is organized?

To change the order of the rows on an Info sheet:

Click on a row, then click the right mouse button. From the shortcut menu, choose to move the selected row up or down, or choose to delete that row. Or use the buttons on the Change toolbar.

To link a global Info sheet to a specific data table:

Click this button in the Change toolbar to bring up a dialog to select which data table the Info Sheet is linked to.

To insert a text file into an Info sheet:

- Click on the Import File button on the Change toolbar.

You can import Info constants (and notes) in a text file as you import your data into Prism.
