The most common use of the JMP Scripting Language is automating your work. Perhaps the second most common use is to extract results from JMP windows. It is easy to do, but unfortunately, it is not apparent to the uninitiated how to do it with a script. We explain the construction of windows with a unified model of display objects. We then present how to address any content in any window. Finally, we show several alternate forms of addresses.

We present the XPath query language, in particular. Rigorous background information is complemented by Illustrative and practical examples we developed while writing unit test scripts for JMP Development. We also highlight interactive JMP tools that make addressing JMP content more straightforward and accessible, as well as some best practices. Let us show you the best way to get what you want from your JMP results!
