The next selection in the context menu is Find, which will bring up the Find<br />

dialog shown in Figure 5-63:<br />

Figure 5-63 Find is used to search the list, either by value or by row<br />

number.<br />

The Find-facility is especially useful for locating specific information in<br />

large lists: You can look for cells fulfilling specific criteria regarding value<br />

<strong>and</strong> also instruct the software to search a specified column only.<br />

Peak-finding might be an example: If you have a large dataset, where the<br />

majority of values lie between 0 <strong>and</strong> 20, except for a peak-value somewhere,<br />

which may be in the order of 100, instruct the Find-routine to locate cells<br />

with values above 50. If the list you are searching contain raw samples, this<br />

might be an erroneous measurement, which you wish to investigate closer, or<br />

if the data comes from a spectrum-calculation, you might want to know the<br />

exact frequency, at which the peak occurs.<br />

The next two entries in the context menu are Print <strong>and</strong> Copy, which will<br />

print the list on the printer, or copy it to the clipboard, from where you may<br />

paste it into a spreadsheet, a word-processing program or something else.<br />

The last entry in the context menu is Export, which will open up the<br />

Export File dialog shown in Figure 5-64.<br />

Figure 5-64 Exporting list-data through the context menu.<br />

The contents of the list will be exported to a file specified by the user. In the<br />

dialog the user can select the drive <strong>and</strong> folder in which to save the exported<br />

data, <strong>and</strong> also specify filename <strong>and</strong> file-format. The design of this dialog<br />

corresponds to normal Windows st<strong>and</strong>ard.<br />

Automatic export from multiple positions is possible via the Export object,<br />

see section 5.9.<br />
