A Minitab file that contains all of the work you generate during a Minitab session, including: Session window output, worksheets, formulas, graphs, command line history, ReportPad contents, dialog box settings, and information about related documents (such as word processing files or Internet links. Once you open Minitab and start adding worksheets, creating graphs, submitting commands, changing settings, etc., Minitab begins building a project file so that you can save all of your work at once and pick up where you left off. Minitab project files allow you to share your work with other Minitab users and can help you stay organized. For example, you might create a separate Minitab project file for each of the different quality initiatives you are working on within your company.
