  JMP was designed and intended for interacting between the program, graphs and the data.  Thus, JMP stores everything in memory. The physical size of the file is not a true indicator of the amount of RAM needed to store the data.  For example, suppose you have a data table with only 1 numeric column and 1 million rows.  The amount of RAM needed to just hold the data would be calculated as 10 * 1,00...

• Incomplete MATLAB syntax cause JMP to hang on macOS

  Background

  In JMP Clinical 7.1, the counts are not correct in the narrow search from the Standardized MedDRA Queries Incidence Screen report. When a subject has both a broad and narrow term within an SMQ, only the broad term is kept and the narrow term is dropped, leading to underreporting in the narrow search. The Hot Fix found here addresses this issue.   [Previously JMP Note 65907]

• Using a JMP® script to delete a non-existent table property now returns error: cannot find table property

  Attempting to delete a table property that does not exist in a data table returns the error "cannot find table property." Because this is an error condition, the JSL script stops executing.  Prior versions of JMP® ignored the condition and proceeded with the next JSL statement. As a workaround, the Try() function can be used to escape the error condition and optionally execute a catch expression (...

• JMP® date columns are exported as character data types through ODBC

  When exporting a JMP^® data table to a database using ODBC, JMP exports the data as either character (CHAR or NCHAR) or numeric (FLOAT or DOUBLE PRECISION) data types. If a column is defined as a JMP date or time, it exports as character data. Changing the data type to a proper date format would need to be handled by the receiving database.   [Previously JMP Note 46350]
