The Tables Pane

The Tables pane lists all the tables that you create in the table document.

The following table explains the icons that appear in the Tables pane.

IconMeaning
The table document. This is displayed at the top of the list. If the table document has not been saved, it is shown as Untitled. If it has been saved, the file name is displayed. When you select the table document all generated tables in the document are displayed in the Results pane, with a table of contents listing the tables.
Tables that do not contain results. This may either be because no results have been generated for the table or because the table definition has changed since the results were generated (for example, by transposing the table, adding another variable, or changing the cell contents in the table).
Tables that contain results.
Profile tables that do not contain results.
Profile tables that contain results.
