Flagging manual integration on Chemstation reports

[kvirkler]

I have created a custom GCMS-SIM report for Data Analysis. I would like to flag any peaks that have been manually integrated, however I cannot figure out how to distinguish between when the target ion is manually integrated vs. the qualifier ions. The MI_USED function works to generally say manually integration was used on that analyte, however I want to break it down by specific ion. I can't figure out how to use tgtevents$ or q1events$. Anyone have experience with this?

I see how to use them but I don't get anything back - just a null variable result, even when I manually integrate. What is worse is that none of it shows up in Detail.XLS. The MI command works correctly, but the target and qualifier manual integration flags don't appear to be setting correctly.

I'll continue to work on it.

Thanks, I appreciate the help. The general flagging will still be helpful, but being able to flag the exact ion is ideal for when analysts are reviewing data and need to know what was manually integrated automatically without looking for it or relying on a handwritten explanation.

I do not think the quant database will store that info (particularly if it does not show in detail.xls).

All I can think of is to reproduce the autointegration and compare with the manual results and flag accordingly. The macro language can support this (I have cooked up similar schemes in the past), but it may not be worth the effort.
