Copying Complete Dataset

To copy the contents of a dataset to one or more other datasets:

  1. Select the desired source dataset.

    You can use an INCA dataset or a dataset file in one of the formats CVX (* .csv),  DAMOS (* .dcm), CDF V2.0 (*.cdfx) or PaCo (*.xml).

  2. Select the destination dataset(s).

    You can use an INCA dataset or a dataset file in one of the formats CVX (* .csv),  DAMOS (* .dcm), CDF V2.0 (*.cdfx) or PaCo (*.xml). The datasets have to be working datasets.

  3. Activate the destination datasets to which you want to copy. Deactivate the destination datasets to which you do not want to copy.
  4. In the Actions menu, select Output format and the corresponding output format:

    • ASCII if you want to generate the output file in ASCII format (file extension .txt).
    • HTML if you want to generate the output file in HTML format (file extension .htm).
  5. In the Actions menu, select Select action and then select Copy.
  6. Make sure that you use the required settings (user setting, path setting, output volume, exact file format setting).
  7. In the Actions menu, select Copy all.

    All variables of the source dataset are copied to the active destination datasets according to your settings. The copy process is logged in the output file.

    Address changes or differing conversion formulae are automatically taken into account during copying.

Note

Once you have created the dataset by importing a data exchange file, the dataset can contain variables with fill bytes. Variables containing fill bytes are represented in gray. Variables containing fill bytes are not taken into account during copy actions.
