Configuring a Named Group Lookup File
A named group lookup file, which is very similar to a lookup file, is typically a tab-delimited text file with column headers. The following procedure describes how to configure this type of lookup file in a DivePlan.
To add a named group lookup, complete the following steps:
-
Open Workbench, connect to a server, and open a project.
-
From the models directory,
select a DivePlan that has a Named Group Lookup file associated with a core dimension, and select Open with > DiveMaster.
In the DivePlan figure, notice the arrow pointing to the Named Group Lookup (NGL) column and the highlight over the Brand column, a core dimension.
-
To open the
Named Group Lookup File dialog box, click the N icon in the NGL cell for the selected column.
In this example, you are adding a
named group lookup file for the core dimension of Brand with named groups On Premise:Brand and Off Premise:Brand. The dimension values are Absolut, Amstel, and Budweiser.
-
In the Filename section, click the ellipsis to open the Select File dialog box where you can browse to the Models directory and attach a named group lookup file. For example,
the figure shows a selected named group lookup file (On_Off_Premise_NGL_ex.txt) with named groups of On Premise and Off Premise.
Note that it is standard practice to import or drag-and-drop named group lookup files that you create into the Models directory.
-
Click OK to
display the new named group lookups in the DiveMaster console.
Notice that the lookup dimension is Brand and On Premise and Off Premise are the named groups.
