When I have set up a graph using selection criteria and saved that criteria to a *.sel file, why does STATISTICA not automatically use that criteria when updating the graph?
When the data file is closed, notice that the SEL option in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen changes from ON to OFF. There is no way to directly have the Selection Conditions file (*.sel) open up automatically when you open the data file (*.sta). However, after opening the data file, you can activate your selection criteria by double clicking on the SEL option in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen, clicking the Open button, selecting the file with your selection criteria, and clicking Open. Make sure the ON radio button is selected under the Status section. Click OK. Note that the SEL option in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen changes from OFF to ON. Now, open your graph file and the criteria should be used when updating the graph. You can use a macro to automate this task.
