Data Layout

The RockWorks datasheet is used to enter rows and columns of a variety of different kinds of data. This section discusses how to set up different kinds of data for use in the program, and how to change the column headings and column types.

! With a few exceptions, most of these data structures are very flexible. In the examples provided, we have tried to illustrate the minimum required data as well as "typical" data layouts, but you can organize your data columns any way you wish. During processing you can always specify which spreadsheet columns contain which data.
