Creating an Analysis Object
To create an analysis for a data set or a range from a data set:
1.In the Folders window, select the folder where you want the new analysis object to be placed.
2.Select the data to which the analysis is to be applied. You can select a data set or formula in the Object List or a cell range in the data view or data set window. This step is optional. If you do not select any data, you have to specify the data later in the Properties dialog box of the analysis object.
3.Under Insert[Analyses] choose the analysis from one of the categories provided.
4.In the Properties dialog box that appears, set the parameters for the new analysis object.
Note: Some analysis procedures require more than one argument. In this case, you have to select multiple data sets in the Object List or specify additional data sets Properties dialog box of the analysis object.
To create the same analysis for multiple data sets:
1.In the Folders window, select the folder in which you want to place the new analysis objects.
2.In the Object List select the data sets or formulas to which the analysis is to be applied.
3.Under Insert[Analyses] choose from one of the categories provided an analysis procedure that calculates only one data set.
4.In the Analyzing several data sets dialog that appears, select whether you want to create one analysis object that calculates all data sets or an analysis object for each data set. Use the Help in the dialog box to learn more about the advantages of each option.
Note: You can also choose the option you want without viewing the dialog box: Hold down the SHIFT key while you select the analysis from one of the menus in Insert[Analyses] to create an analysis object for each data set. Alternatively, press and hold the CTRL key to create a single analysis object.
5.If you created only one analysis object, a Properties window where you can set the parameters for it will appear. Otherwise, the new analysis objects will be selected in the Object List. You can set parameters for all objects at once in the FlexPro Properties window.
Note: Not all analysis objects are available in FlexPro View.
