How can I open a JMP file without leaving a record in the From list?

lwx228 — Fri, 09 Jun 2023 23:32:36 GMT

For example, open "Big class.jmp ",

Can add code to JSL's open code to keep it out of the From list?Or use JSL later to delete "Big Class.jmp"'s records from the From list?

Thanks!

dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp";？？？ );

I think this is what you are asking about. I find it really useful when I'm opening a lot of files, it prevents the ones I care about from falling off the bottom of the list!

Add To Recent option in Open( ) function

Another option, especially if you are scripting, is to open the file as Private. Then the file does not appear in the From list nor the Windows List.
