Working with Processing Options

You can work with processing options in these two ways:

  • From a menu

  • From a version list

When working with processing options from a menu, you can access them for an object either from the menu bar or by right-clicking the object. In either case, one of the options is Prompt For. The Prompt For submenu contains these options, when available:

Options

Description

Values

Choose this option to specify processing option values.

Version

Choose this option to select which version of the object to run. Depending on how the version was designed, you might be prompted to enter processing option values after you select the version, or you might be able to modify them from the Row menu.

Data Selection

Choose this option to specify which data to use.

Data Selection and Values

Choose this option to specify which data to use and then to specify processing option values.

If you select to run processing options from a menu, the processing details defined at the menu level take precedence. Not all objects enable you to select from all four of these options.
