The Data Prompter gives you access to some general purpose visualization 
programs which can visualize a wide variety of data types. The 
intent is to get you a picture of your data as 
quickly as possible. So start by importing your data through the 
Data Prompter and then choose the Visualize Data button. You can 
see the visual program used by choosing Open Visual Program Editor 
from the Windows menu of the Image window. You can save 
the visual program by choosing the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Save As #!EF option 
from the Visual Program Editor  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   File #!EF menu. #!N #!N 
The following sections in this tutorial include a number of examples 
of different types of visualizations that can be performed on data. 
Each one uses sample data provided with Data Explorer. If you 
want to apply a particular visualization method (program) to your own 
data, proceed as follows: #!N #!I0 #!N  #!F-adobe-times-medium-r-normal--18*   #!N #!N #!I30 
#!N 1. Create a General Array Format header file for your 
data with the Data Prompter (see  #!Ltimpdat,dxall37 h Importing Data  #!EL  and  #!Lprompt,dxall157 h Data Prompter  #!EL  ) or 
use any other available method of importation (see IBM Visualization Data 
Explorer User's Guide). #!N #!I30 #!N 2. Starting with the visual 
program you want to use, open the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   Import #!EF configuration 
dialog box and change the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   name #!EF parameter to the 
name of the file to be imported (either the General Array 
header file or the data file if another format is used). 
#!N #!I30 #!N 3. Execute the visual program using your data 
file. Note: You will probably have to "reset the camera" to 
see your data, because the program you choose has viewing parameters 
appropriate to the sample data but not necessarily to yours. To 
reset the camera, select  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   View Control #!EF in the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
Options #!EF pull-down menu of the Image window. Click on  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
Reset #!EF at the bottom of the dialog box. #!N #!I0
