Chemstation How to Print Sequence Table

Hello,

You can change the behavior to the smaller table format if needed. Make a backup copy of your Chemstation.ini file before making any changes. If you have a newer version the Chemstation ini file will be in a new location. C:\ProgramData\Agilent Technologies\ChemStation\ChemStation.ini

ChemStation revision B.04.02 and C.01.0x uses a new format for the sequence printout. In this format there are separate sections for each of the sequence lines rather than just a condensed table. The separate sections allow for enough space to print long text information.

Some customers have requested to be able to continue using the previous format for the sequence printout.

Solution/Action:

In order to return to the old format for the sequence printout, the following statement has to be added to the [PCS] section of the \Windows\ChemStation.ini file

PrintSeqOldLayout=1

The change will be effective the next time ChemStation is restarted.

Thank you for the information. 

I tried editing the .ini file. The line "PrintSeqOldLayout=1" was not there so I added that line at the end of the [PCS] section. However, after saving the file and restarting the software, I didn't notice any changes when "Print Sequence Template..." was selected.

Hello,

What Chemstation version do you have?

Hello,

There are several things listed and I wasn't sure which one is the software. 

Agilent OpenLAB CDS ChemStation 35900 A/D Driver 2.3.54

OpenLab CDS - GC driver 3.7.195

LC and CE Drivers 3.5.77

Micro GC Drivers 2.3.6

If you are trying to print after the sequence has run, you can set up a report that does what you are asking for in the reporting module of data analysis. Just make sure the report is either a sequence or cross-sequence report (the default is single injection).

Got it. What item would I drag over to display all samples in a given sequence? Do you have to select every sample in the sequence to generate the report?
