Documenting Agilent VEE Programs
By using the File ⇒ Save Documentation... command, you can
automatically generate program documentation. VEE lists all
objects, with key settings, the default and user names, the
Description entries, and any “nesting.” For example, objects
within a UserObject are nested one level from the main VEE
environment, and these levels are indicated by numbers.
You can also document individual objects using a
Description. First, this exercise describes how to document
an individual object, and then how to generate the program
documentation.
Documenting Objects with Description Dialog Boxes
All objects have a Description item in their object menus,
which provides a dialog box to accept documentation on that
particular object. This documentation file also provides a
way to correlate the documentation with screen dumps. In
this section, you will add an entry to the Description dialog
box.
1 Open the Random.vee program.
2 Delete the template information, as shown in Figure 74,
from the Description.
