Set viewing options for a data source table

Viewing options allow you to sort rows as needed and choose which columns to include in a data source table. The options apply to the specific table during your current session. When you exit and log back in, Oracle Empirica Signal resets the options to the default settings.

While setting options, click Clear to reset the options to the default settings (except for which columns to include).
