Session 1-Step 2: Open a Worksheet

 

When you start Minitab, you begin with a new, empty project. You can add data to your project in many ways, but the most common way is to open a worksheet. Note that you are only copying the data from the worksheet to the project; any changes that you make to the data added to your project will not affect the original file.

 

In this session, you will use the file PRESSURE.MTW. This file is one of the dozens of worksheets that are shipped with Minitab. Most of these worksheets are in the Data subdirectory or folder.

 

1. Choose File > Open Worksheet.
2. Move to the Data subdirectory and select the worksheet PRESSURE.MTW.
3. Click Open, then OK (if necessary).
