The table object model and the other main components communicate with each other using a number of internal files. By default, all of these files (with the exception of the statistics data file) are automatically deleted. However, you can specify that they should be saved by setting the table object model Document.KeepLogFiles property to True. When using this option in a multiuser environment, the Document.LogFilePath should be set to a unique value for each user to stop the files for each user getting mixed up. In UNICOM Intelligence Reporter - Survey Tabulation, these files are stored in the user’s folder.

When reading table document (.mtd) files, if the LogFilePath does not exist, it should be set to an empty string, and KeepLogFiles should be set to False.

This file describes the structure of the tables that the user has defined, in terms of the names of the variables and their positions in the tables. The file also records details of any other options and settings defined by the user.

This file, generated by the table object model, describes the computations that are required for the current set of tables and contains all of the information that is required by the table aggregator to perform these computations.

This file, generated by the table object model, specifies the structure of the tables and the processing that needs to be done on them.

This is a binary file, which is generated by the table aggregator. It contains the numbers that are required for the tables and cannot be derived by the table builder. For example, it contains counts and weighted counts, but not the percentages that are based on them. The numbers are stored as double precision values.

This is the results data model file that is generated by the table builder. It stores the structure of the tables in XML format with the numbers for each cell embedded hin the XML.

This is a log file that is produced by the table aggregator. Its format is similar to the standard UNICOM Intelligence log file format.

This file contains the diagnostics information for the statistical tests. This file is created only when statistical tests have been requested. For more information about the contents of this file, see Diagnostics information.
