Note
Description
Returns
A data table.
Required Arguments
With(Data Table(name))
specifies the data table to join with the active table.
"Private"
A quoted keyword that opens the data table without displaying it in a data table window.
"Invisible"
A quoted keyword that hides the data table. Use this argument to keep the data table hidden but use it in a subsequent expression. The data table is displayed in the Home Window’s Window List and the Window > Unhide list.
Select(columns)
Selects the data table to join with the active table.
Select With(columns)
By Matching Columns(column1=column2)
Selects columns in both tables whose values and data types match.
"Cartesian"
Joins two tables using a Cartesian fashion, where it forms a new data table consisting of all possible combinations of the rows from two original data tables. JMP crosses the data in the first table with the data in the second to display all combinations of the values in each set.
"By Row Number"
Joins the two tables side by side.
"Merge Same Name Columns"
Data from the second table replaces the data of the same name columns in the original table. Note that missing values in the first table are replaced by nonmissing values in the second.
"Match Flag"
Determines whether the Match Flag column is created when you are matching by column.
Copy Formula(Boolean)
Includes formulas from the main table and/or the second table in the output columns.
Suppress Formula Evaluation(Boolean)
Prevents JMP from evaluating columns’ formulas during the creation of the new table.
"Update"
Column data from the second table change the data of the same name columns in the original table. The results are displayed in a new data table. Note the following: JMP does not replace data with missing values; the output table uses the same columns as the original table. Thus, when you use "Update", Select Columns, the "Update" option is available only when joining by row number or by matching columns.
Drop Multiples(Boolean, Boolean)
Specifies that you want the new table to contain only one row for each name. Applies only when matching by columns.
Include Non Matches(Boolean, Boolean)
Includes non-matching columns in the main table and new data table. Applies only when matching by columns.
"Preserve Main Table Order"
Maintains the order of the original data table in the joined table, instead of sorting by the matching columns.
Output Table Name(name)
Specifies the name of the joined table. If you do not specify a name, JMP names the data table Untitled # (for example, Untitled 1).
Note
See 连接数据表 in Using JMP for more information.
Makes a journal from the data table. Only the data grid is included, not notes, variables, or scripts.
Notes
– Journals that are created in JMP 14 or later might contain compressed matrix data for large matrices. If you have JSL scripts that open journals and extract data from them, you might need to use the Get Journal message (which does not compress the matrices) rather than saving the journal to disk with the Journal message. See dt<<Get Journal for an example.
Adds a link to the data table in the current journal. If a journal does not exist, a new one is created.
Optional Arguments
path
Specifies the quoted path where the table is saved. If omitted, the data table should already have a disk location (previously saved or loaded), otherwise the journal link is incomplete and will not reload the table.
Embed
Embeds a JSL script to recreate the data table.
Button Name(name)
Specifies the name that is displayed on the button. The name argument is quoted. If the button name is not specified, the button is named after the data table.
Returns the date on which the data table was last saved.
Layout is deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Use Journal instead.
Locks the data table so that data and column properties cannot be added or changed. See dt <<Set Edit Lock(<"Modify Cells">, <"Add Rows">, <"Add Columns">, <"Delete Rows">, <"Delete Columns">) for more information about locking specific components of a data table.
Example
The following example creates indicator columns for the sex column. Append Column Name creates columns named sex_F and sex_M. Otherwise, the columns are named after each level (F and M). Include Missing includes missing values.
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt << Make Indicator Columns(
Columns( :sex ),
Append Column Name( 1 ),
Include Missing( 1 )
);
Creates a row state handler function. The argument of the function holds the rows whose row states get changed.
Returns the data table as a SAS Data Step.
Returns the data table as a SAS Data Step and places it in a SAS script window.
Description
Example
The following example moves the age column to the last column in Big Class.jmp:
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt << Go To( :age );
dt << Move Selected Columns( To Last );
You may also use a list to specify the column names.
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
list = {"name", "sex"};
dt << Move Selected Columns( list, To Last );
Description
Adds a new column titled with the quoted name after the last column in dt. Unless otherwise specified, columns are numeric, continuous, and 12 characters wide.
Returns
A column reference.
Required Argument
name
The name of the new column.
Optional Arguments
data type
A quoted string that specifies the data type. The options are "Numeric", "Character", "Row State", or "Expression".
modeling type
A quoted string that describes the modeling type ("Continuous", "Nominal", "Ordinal", "Multiple Response", "Unstructured Text", "None", or "Vector").
Format(format, width)>
Sets the format type and column width. See col<<Format(<width>, <decimal places>, <"Use Thousands Separator">) for examples of setting other numeric format properties.
Set Values({})
Specifies the data in the column.
Formula
Specifies the column formula.
Set Property(properties)
Specifies any messages that data table columns support. Action arguments are found in the Column Properties menu in the New Column window. Axis and Link Reference are action argument.

Example
dtA = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Semiconductor Capability.jmp", invisible );
nw = New Window( "Example",
H List Box(
V List Box( dtbox = dtA << New Data Box() ),
dtA << Distribution(
Continuous Distribution( Column( :NPN1 ) ),
Continuous Distribution( Column( :PNP1 ) )
)
)
);
dtbox << Set Auto Stretching( 0, 0 ) << Set Width( 800 );
Opens a duplicate of the data table. The second data table is identical to and linked to the original data table, so that any changes made in one are reflected in the other. Closing either data table also closes the other and all references to the data tables are deleted.
This can be useful to show an invisible data table.
Example
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt << Set Property( "Bivariate Example", Bivariate( Y( :weight ), X( :height ), Fit Line ) );
Example
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Tiretread.jmp" );
dt << Copy Column Properties( {:MODULUS, :ELONG} );
dt2 = New Table( "test it",
New Column( "T1", numeric, continuous ),
New Column( "T2", numeric, continuous ),
New Column( "T3", numeric, continuous ),
Add Rows( 10 )
);
dt2 << Paste Column Properties( {:T1, :T3} );
// pastes the column properties from MODULUS and ELONG to T1 and T3
Description
Used to identify strong predictors.
Example
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Boston Housing.jmp" );
obj = dt << Predictor Screening(
Y( :chas ),
X( :crim, :indus, :nox, :rooms, :age, :distance, :radial )
);
Description
Example
dt << Rename Script Group( "Maps", "Street Maps" );
Description
Required Argument
Select Where(condition)
Specifies the condition by which the rows are selected.
Optional Arguments
current selection("Extend"|"Restrict"|"Clear")
Extends, restricts, or clears the existing selections. Clear is the default value.
Dialog("Keep Dialog Open")
Shows the dialog so that the user can edit the options.
Description
Note
Saves the data table to the database named using the quoted connection information and quoted table name. The "Replace" option replaces the existing database with the current database.
Selects the second and subsequent duplicate rows. If columns are selected, duplicate values are found in the rows of those columns. The duplicate values are case sensitive.
See Select Duplicate Rows in the Scripting Guide for examples.
Description
Note
See Select Where in the Scripting Guide for examples.
Marks the data table as changed, even if no changes have been made.
Assigns the specified columns as label columns.
Description
Returns
The data table name as a string.
Notes
A change was made to the Set Name message so that now the new table name is returned as a string. In previous releases, Set Name returned a scriptable data table object. As a result of this change, JMP scripts might need to be updated for the desired result to be returned. For example, rewrite the following script:
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" ) << Set Name( "Test" );
Separate the messages so that dt represents the data table instead of “Test”:
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt << Set Name( "Test" );
The result is the same as in previous releases but will run successfully in both earlier and newer versions of JMP.
Sets the row ID display width to the specified number of pixels.
Description

Remaining Columns("Keep All"|"Drop All"| Keep(columns)|Drop(columns))
specifies what to do with the remaining columns in the resulting table. Keep All is the default setting.
Note: Keep All includes all columns in the output data table. However, the values of every column are not included. Because multiple rows are collapsed to a single row in the output data table, some values of the kept columns are dropped.
Copy Formula(Boolean)
Includes column formulas from the source table in the resulting table.
Suppress Formula Evaluation(Boolean)
Stops any copied formulas from being evaluated. True is the default setting.
Sort by Column Property
Sorts the order of the output columns by the sort column property that is defined for the Split by column.
