Saving statistics to files automatically

Using the Manager, choose Settings ð Statistics. In the Statistics dialog, you control if and how statistics files are saved to files for all of the production modules.

Setting

Description

Save statistics

FORMS saves statistics files automatically in all modules until you change this setting again. That is, this setting is not saved to a particular form definition or job; it applies to all FORMS processes.

Save field statistics

The interpretation statistics for individual fields are saved for all Interpret jobs until you change the setting again. That is, this setting is not saved to a particular form definition or job; it applies to all forms processed in Interpret.

Path for statistics files

Specify the directory in which statistics files are to be saved automatically. Unless you accept the default directory, click the Browse button and specify the directory in which statistics files are to be saved automatically.

Add to file

FORMS adds new statistics to the end of existing statistics files. Type a file name without an extension. FORMS adds the extension automatically: .SJS for Scan, .IJS for Interpret, .VJS for Verify, and .TJS for Transfer statistics.

Automatic name

FORMS automatically creates new files with names in the format YMMDDIII, plus the extension (see above). Y stands for year, MM for month, DD for day, and III for the index that is incremented for each file created.

Example: 80201001.SJS is the first file created on February 1, 2008. Subsequent files created on that day would be named 80201002.SJS, 80201003.SJS, etc.

Ask for file name

FORMS prompts you to type the file name and path each time statistics are saved.
