DBF file structure
Each validated chromatogram is saved separately, a separate row is created for each monitored parameter. Columns irrelevant to a given parameter remain empty.
Note:
The database file is automatically created in the current project directory.
Description of individual columns (category):
Column | Description |
---|---|
CHROM_NAME | Chromatogram name (including path, if applicable). The CHROM_NAME field is designed for 256 characters, so the entire name will fit. It can, however, happen that in MS Excel, for example, only the first column of an open *.dbf will be displayed - other columns being beyond the screen size. |
DATE | Date of the validation. |
COMPONENT | Component name. |
PARAM_NAME | Parameter name. |
LO_LIMIT | Lower limit. |
HI_LIMIT | Upper limit. |
VALUE | Parameter value. |
RESULT | Validation result (in the selection PASS, FAIL, UNKNOWN). |
Note:
Working with *.dbf files in MS Excel is described in detail in the chapter "Using DBF in MS Excel"
