Fig. 6-18. Creating Sample Pairs
To create a sample pair, highlight a sample inn the left column and a sample in the
right and then click Pair Selections. The Right sample turns red to indicate it is paired
with the selected sample in the left column. To un-pair a selection, highlight the
sample pair you wish to un-pair and click un-pair selection. If the sample you select in
the left column is already paired to a sample, pairing it with another sample will
automatically un-pair the selected sample with original sample.
You can also import sample pairs by clicking Import. This opens the Select file to
Import dialog. Locate the file you wish to import and click Open. The format of your
file must be:
sample1,sample2
sample3,sample4
Each row in the text file represents a pair separated by a comma.
Upon importing the sample pairs, PDQuest attempts to locate samples in your list
which match the pair in the file. If a match for a pair cannot be found it is simply not
imported. Only those pairs containing samples in your database are imported.
