SigmaPlot Frequently Asked Questions

Question	Answer
When I try to install the SigmaPlot 2000 on my PC, it doesn't automatically start. It just stops.	Insert your SigmaPlot CD into the CD ROM drive. The SigmaPlot Autorun program will try to launch. You should Exit out of the Autorun menus. Double Click on MY COMPUTER Icon, right click on EXPLORE, click on your CD drive, double click on SPW2000 folder then double click on the setup.exe.
I have SigmaPlot 2000 and am using MSWord 97. Upon Pasting a SigmaPlot graph into MSWord97, saving, closing and reopening the word file, a big red X replaces my graph.	The problem lies with the version of Word/Office97. The latest service release SR-2a update to Office97 may be needed. This can happen with any pasted chart from any application.
I just installed SigmaPlot 2000 on WIN98 machine. On startup, gets an error message: 'SPW caused an invalid page fault in module HHXTRL.OCX at 014f:5d3010ff.' It claims it is missing the file.	SigmaPlot uses HTML Help, and it uses the HHXTRL.OCX file. It needs to be updated. Run HHUPD.EXE which is located in the spw6 directory. This is needed when Internet Explorer v5.0 is not installed, or Netscape is used.
I need a Serial number and license code in order to install SigmaPlot. Where can I find them?	The Serial Number is about 7 digits long number which you can find on your SigmaPlot CD pouch. The License Code is about 38 digit long number which you can find on a yellow piece of paper which is included in the software package.
I have created a file in SigmaPlot 5.0 and after saving it, I can't open it anymore?	You might have long column titles in your worksheet, in order to resolve it please download the SigmaPlot 5.05 patch from our web site: http://www.spss.com/tech/downloads/splot.htm
When I try to install SigmaPlot 5.0, my hard disk won't allow me to self-register sbent532.ocx and spw5.exe.	This is due to the old Windows 95 operating system. It can be resolved by upgrading to Windows 98 or later version of MS operating system, Upgrade your Microsoft Internet Explorer browser to version 5.0 or you can email SPSS Science Support to get the necessary zipped file to resolve this issue.
Now that I have completed my analysis and produced all the graphs I need, how can I publish them? I need to send graphs to my publisher, and I need to publish them on our company's Intranet.	There is a new Help topic in SigmaPlot 2000 that explains how to use the export function. It has information on what file formats to use, publishing on the Web, a discussion of graphics resolution and how DPI works, and tips & tricks. See the help topic: Creating Files for Publication.
Why is the SigmaPlot graphics export feature so slow?	It may be due to low system resources of the computer and the DPI resolution selected to export. Lower DPI resolution can help export the graph faster.
I'm unable to run SigmaStat V2.03 from SigmaPlot V5.0?	There are two possibilities. SigmaStat V2.03 is a separate software program, and it has to be installed in order to run it from SigmaPlot. SigmaPlot V5.0 and SigmaStat V2.03 are using 2 different data sheets so in order to get SigmaPlot data into SigmaStat you need to export the data as SigmaStat 2.0 out from SigmaPlot 5.0 using File/Export dialog. You can also use copy/paste from SigmaPlot 5.0 to SigmaStat 2.03 datasheet.
I'm getting a parse failure when I run a transform.	This may be due to Windows Regional settings. Please see 'Transforms & Curve Fitting Language' below.
I enter dates in one format, but SigmaPlot changes it to another.	There are both the Windows Regional settings and SigmaPlot settings for the date format. Please see 'SigmaPlot Date and Time Formats..' below.
SigmaPlot is spacing my data evenly on the axis, even though the data is not evenly spaced.	It is likely that you have an empty cell or a text cell at the top of the column. SigmaPlot will then interpret the data as category data. To correct the plot, double click on the axis and change the type to numeric or date as appropriate.
