This section covers actions that you can perform on columns in a data table, such as creating, grouping, setting and getting attributes and properties, and so on.
• Send Messages to Data Column Objects
• Create a New Column by Text Matching
• Use Set Selected to Select Columns
• Create Custom Functions, Transforms, and Formats
Note: JMP can display math symbols and Greek letters (controlled in Preferences in the Font category). This means that if you save a column (such as T square limits), the column name could either be “T Square Limits” (no special characters) or “T2 Limits” (with special characters). Any reference using the column name must match the name exactly, or it fails.
