Specifying an Expression to be Evaluated

(i) In the TABmate form, you can click on a coefficient or variable name, or you can select an expression. To evaluate this (either the coefficient or variable clicked on or the expression), right click on the form and then click on the menu item

Evaluate (selection or coeff/var at cursor).

For example, in SJLN.TAB consider the usual formula for DVCOM(i), which is

FORMULA (all,i,SECT)

DVCOM(i) = SUM(j,SECT, DVCOMIN(i,j)) + DVHOUS(i) ;

If you click to the left of the "H" in DVHOUS(i), the DVHOUS(i) values will be shown. If you select the expression "SUM(j,SECT,DVCOMIN(i,j))", this expression will be evaluated.

If the TAB file you have loaded contains any Postsim statements, the values you see when you evaluate an expression may depend on whether or not the expression comes from a Postsim statement in the TAB file.

More details.

(ii) In the AnalyseGE form, you can type an expression into the Evaluate memo on the bottom half of the form. [You can also copy expressions from elsewhere, including the TABLO file open in TABmate, and can edit these expressions.] In this case, click on one of the two Evaluate buttons on the AnalyseGE form to have the expression evaluated.

If the TAB file you have loaded contains any Postsim statements, the two Evaluate buttons let you calculate either the pre-simulation or the post-simulation values of the expression.

More details.

(iii) In the AnalyseGE form, as well as the two Evaluate buttons, there are Clear and Load Statements buttons you can use. [The Clear button clears the contents of the Expression memo.]
