The Data File Maintenance allows access to the files for the currentdataset which include: Assemblies, Databook, Design Specifications, Fabricated Subtotals, Fitting Standards, Formulas, Hanger Support, Labor Tables, Levels, Phases, Pressure Tables, Sections, Sizes, Specials, and Subtotals.
Generally, each data set in Data File Maintenance will be split into a Tree and a List, as seen in Figure 8-1. The left portion of the display contains the tree, and the header panel for the tree. The right portion of the display contains the list. Above the list are bands and headers. A band is a general grouping that contains several headers. The band is a darker shade of gray than the header.

Notes: The Design Specifications, Levels, and Sizes data sets only contain a tree, and header panels for that tree. The Formulas, Phases, Sections, Specials, and Subtotals data sets only contain a list, and header panels for that list. Fitting Standards contains a tree on the left. The right side of the display allows you to adjust the dimensions, tab order, and accessories. For more information on how the fitting standards operate, see “Navigating the Fitting Standards” in the Fitting Standards topic. |
