CDS Toolbar

The CDS Table Toolbar ribbon located at the top of the CDS Table window provides several important features. With the exception of a few CDS-specific options, these buttons are consistent with the ribbon available for working with Input Tables. For more information on those features see Data Table Toolbar.

The toolbar ribbon on the main Computational Datasets window includes the following functions:

Run Multiple Projects

This option is used launch multiple project files (one after another) through the use of a specialized CDS table. This is an older feature and we strongly recommend using the Project Scheduler instead, but further instructions for backward compatibility are in the Run Multiple Projects topic.

Open Dataset

This option is used to open, change, or create a new CDS file.

To open an existing CDS file, select Open Dataset, navigate to and select the desired Aurora Computational Dataset file (*.CDS), then click Open.

To create a new CDS file, select Open Dataset, enter a new file name, navigate to the desired location, and click Open.

Save Dataset

This option saves the current Dataset tables and information to the current CDS file.

NOTE: Always use Save Dataset after making changes to any Computational Dataset table in order to prevent changes from being lost.

Save Dataset As

This option saves the current Dataset tables and information to a new CDS file, basically offering the option to copy the existing CDS file and save it with a new name.

Reload Dataset

This command re-reads the current CDS file (as it was last saved).

NOTE: Reloading the Dataset will cause all changes which have not been saved to be lost.

Clear Dataset

This option clears the Computational Dataset information currently held in memory.

NOTE: Clearing the Dataset will cause all changes which have not been saved to be lost.

Add Table

This option adds a new table to the Computational Dataset.

Detach Dataset

This option detaches a CDS file from the current project file. The CDS file is stored in the C:\AURORAxmp directory by default and can be reopened using the Open Dataset button.
