<strong>JMP</strong> Projects (Windows Only)<br />

To always save the session upon exiting, select Do not ask me again about saving the session and click<br />

Yes or No. This option also prevents <strong>JMP</strong> from saving the session upon exiting,<br />

You can change this option later in Preferences:<br />

1. Choose File > Preferences.<br />

2. Select the Reports icon.<br />

3. Next to the Save the session when exiting option, choose when you want <strong>JMP</strong> to save the session.<br />

Always, never, and asking whether you want to save are the options.<br />

Save Sessions Manually<br />

You can also save a session to a location of your choosing and continue working, so you can restore the saved<br />

state whenever you like. Manually saving sessions is useful when you want more control of session saving<br />

and restoring. This option is especially helpful when you want to maintain multiple independent session<br />

states, each with a different set of files and analyses.<br />

To create a script of a <strong>JMP</strong> session:<br />

1. Select File > Save Session Script.<br />

2. Enter the name of your script in the window and click Save.<br />

Another way of manually saving a session is by creating a journal of each session. A journal can be a<br />

notebook-style or project-style file. With it, you can collect references to files in a project, develop<br />

presentation launch pads, document projects, and store many scripts in one place. See “<strong>JMP</strong> Journals” on<br />

page 328 for details.<br />

To create a journal of a <strong>JMP</strong> session:<br />

1. Open the files that you would like to include in the journal.<br />

2. Select File > New > Journal. Or, to append your open files to an existing journal, open that journal.<br />

3. Right-click in the empty journal and select Add All Open Files.<br />

<strong>JMP</strong> Projects (Windows Only)<br />

A <strong>JMP</strong> Project is useful when you want to save multiple <strong>JMP</strong> file types (data tables, reports, scripts, or other<br />

<strong>JMP</strong> supported formats) into a single file. The single <strong>JMP</strong> project file contains everything needed to re-open<br />

all the included files. This is its major difference from saved session scripts. The scripts save the state of the<br />

software and the projects save the state along with the files.<br />

Projects can also include non-<strong>JMP</strong> documents (such as Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF files). This option<br />

lets you group and quickly open files.<br />

Note: Though you can script and open projects on Macintosh, this section only covers working with<br />

projects on Windows.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
