Save and Share Data Tables

JMP saves data tables in the formats listed in Table 10.1.

Here are the basic steps for saving a data table:

(Windows) Select File > Export to save the data table in multiple formats.

(macOS) Select File > Save As to save as a JMP file (.jmp). Select File > Export to save in Text (.dat), Microsoft Excel (.xls or .xlsx), SAS Transport (.xpt), and SAS Data Sets (.sas7bdat), and JSON formats.

Note: To save a data table as a journal, select Edit > Journal and then File > Save As.
