TSTool Documentation Getting Started Getting Started - 7 3.3.2 Command List and Command Error Indicators The Commands list occupies the middle of th e main interface and contains: • t ime series identifiers corresponding to time series selected from the Time Series List • c ommands inserted using the Commands menu (see Chapter 4 – Commands ). Time series identifiers are added to the Commands list by selecti ng items in the Time Series List and copying the identifiers to the Commands list , as discussed above. An alternative to using the Time Series List to select time series is to use specific read commands from the Commands menu (e.g., use a ReadDateValue() command). Using read commands is useful when more control is needed during the data read or when processing more than one time series with one command . The Commands and other TSTool GUI lists behave according to standard conventions for the operating sys tem.

Delete Com mand(s) Delete the selected commands (currently same as Cut ). Find Commands(s) Find commands in the command list. This displays a dialog. Use the right -click in the found items to go to or select found items. Select All Commands Select all the commands . Deselect All Commands Deselect all the commands. This is useful because only selected commands are processed (or all if none are selected). It is therefore important not to unknowingly have one or a few commands selected during processing.
