You can highlight multiple number fields by dragging your cursor over the fields.
You can highlight rows and columns by clicking on the button at the beginning of the
row or column. You can cut or copy your data using key commands: Ctrl + x = cut

For Kinetic data, recalculating the velocities will overwrite the manually entered
velocities. Velocities are recalculated whenever the Kinetic mode, the time range, or
absorbance range is changed. See page 40 for details.
It is not possible to edit individual absorbance readings of a Kinetic Data File.
Identifying Outliers
If some well readings appear to be incorrect and you do not want to include them in
your standard curve calculations or reports, you can flag them as outliers.
