Do Not Open CSV File after 'Save As'

[#1]

Within JMP, after I save a JMP table as type CSV using 'Save As', the CSV file will automatically open in MS Excel (my default CSV program).  Is there a way to stop this behavior?  I would simply like to save the CSV file, and not open it afterwards.  I searched the JMP preferences menu, and found no obvious options.

JMP 14.3.0

Windows 10 Pro, Version 1909

Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise

Thanks!

Hi @robot ,

I don't know about anything in preferences, but the using dt << Save() in a JSL script with a .csv file extension does not open the saved filed.  I'm not sure if that can be suppressed for point-and-click saves.

Just curious if this is a JMP "issue" or is it that your Excel program automatically opens it?  Perhaps look at preferences in the Microsoft product?

Checkbox on save as dialog only appears for some extensions

@Craige_Hales  Brilliant!  Thank you!

In JMP18, the box "Open the file..." seems to be ticked as default. As JMP user for more than 10 years, it annoys me to death that suddenly, I have to untick this box now every time I save a file as. Is there a way to change this default in the preferences? I couldn't find it

Pretty sure the setting used to be sticky, saved in the registry perhaps. Not where I can test it right now. Open a support ticket if no one comes up with an answer.

• I only see this change. But it's not the answer.
