Creating and running a Prism script within Prism
While testing and developing a Prism script, run it from Prism. Once you perfect it, you may want to run it from the command line or from another program as explained later.
Creating a script
To create a script within Prism:
| 1. | Click the Prism button (or drop file menu) and choose Run Script |
| 2. | Choose to make a new script |
| 3. | Choose to start with a blank screen, or to start with a copy of an existing script. |
| 4. | Enter or edit the script on the left side of the GraphPad Prism Script dialog. Use the right side to review script syntax. |
| 5. | Repeatedly click ‘1 step’ to step through the script. You can watch the result in Prism, as well as observe the script log. |
| 6. | Click “12 steps’ if you are feeling lucky. |
| 7. | Click ‘Run” when you are convinced the script will run without error. The Script dialog will minimize, as will Prism, while the script runs. |
Editing a script
| 1. | Click the Prism button (or drop file menu) and choose Run Script |
| 2. | Choose one of the scripts listed in the menu. Or choose Open Script file to open a script in an external file. |
| 3. | Follow steps 4 through 7 above. |
