Data Folio in Weibull

When I Copy and paste data into the Weibull++ data folio, if the data contains a zero value processing the data is not possible unless I specifically make the S or F entry in the state column. Can this be overcome?

I also have a question regarding the data folio. What if you use the data folio wizard and have all failure data (you just enter the failure times, no "F or S" column appears)and then for some reason you want to rerun the same data with some values as suspensions. Do you have to open a new data folio (with "F or S" column)and cut and paste your data over?

If you have Weibull++ 5, unfortunately yes, you will have to create a new data sheet (for the appropriate data type) and paste the data into the new sheet. Although it might be easier to insert a new data sheet into the current Folio (to keep everything together). Now if you have Weibull++ 6, go to the Data menu and select Alter Data Type. This will allow you to specify the new data type. The existing data sheet will then be converted to accommodate this new data type while placing the existing data into the new data sheet.
