Add Fields

You can add any number of new fields to the Output file. To do this, click the Add Fields button.

Specify the Name of each field and define its characteristics: Type, Width, Number of decimal points (if any). If anything is entered into the Value field, this value will be written to all records in the new field in the output file.

You can use the buttons on the grid list toolbar (or use the right-click menu) to Manage the rows in the list.

Name

Enter the names of the new fields you want to add to the output file.

Type

Specify the types of the new fields. Two types of fields are recognised by the application: Numeric and Character. The Field type will determine how filters are applied, how calculations are performed, and so on.

Width

Specify the width of the new fields. In the case of Numeric fields, this will include the decimal point and the number of decimal places. A sample result of 123.010, for example, would require a field width of at least seven characters.

Decimals

For Numeric fields, define the decimal precision of the field by specify the number of decimal places.

Value

(Optional) Enter default values for each new field. These values will be written to all records in the Output file.
