4. Enter a value.

There are several ways to fill a table with values:

• Create new rows and columns and type or paste data into the data grid. See “Enter Data in Data Tables”.

• Construct a formula to calculate column values. See “Create Formulas in JMP”.

• Import data from another application. See About Importing Data.

• Copy values from another application and paste them into the table.

• Use a measuring instrument to read external measures. For more information about data feeds, see “Real-Time Data Capture on Windows” in the Scripting Guide.

• Drag columns from one table to another.
