5.3.2.1 Description of Output Option Commands
File Format
There are five File Format options to choose from: No File, Field, Comma,
Printable, and Custom. If No File is chosen, then only the .PRN file is saved to
disk. The Field, Comma, and Printable options produce files formatted as Field
Formatted, Comma Separated, and Printable ASCII, respectively. An example of
each of these file types is given in Table 5-1 in the Input Files section.
The Custom file format uses the regional settings in the Windows operating
system to determine the decimal symbol and the separator used with data values.
In the Regional Settings for Numbers, the decimal symbol uses the character
specified in the Decimal Symbol field; the separator uses the character specified in
the List Separator field. These settings are typically found in Control Panel |
Regional Settings (or Options), Numbers tab. This allows users who are used to
the comma “,” as the decimal and the period “.” as a data separator to see the
output data in that format.
Default Column Widths
The Default Column Widths field is used to set the default width of the
columns. Valid entries are 6,7,8, and 9. The initial width is 8. High
Resolution Final Storage data requires a minimum column width of 8.
Entering a number in the Width row for each column overrides the default
settings and sets the width of individual columns. If this field is left blank, the
Default Column Widths field is used.
