With a depth table selected, click the Table | Convert | To Interval Table command. The depth table, with a single depth column, is copied and converted to an interval table, with two depth columns: From and To.
To convert a depth table to an interval table:
Select a tab containing a depth table.
A Depth table has only one column associated with depth.
Click the Table | Convert | To Interval Table command. A new table is created, indicated by the new tab Interval.Depth, where Depth was the original table name.
When this table is converted the resulting table looks like the following:
When a depth table is converted to an interval table Strater automatically
changes the original Depth column to a To column, and adds a
From column that is filled with the To values, but dropped one row.
The To Interval Table function automatically defines the interval from and to depths based upon the supplied depth values. The first depth value for the new interval table always starts with zero. Therefore, you need to manually modify the first "from" depth in the new table if the first interval does not start a zero. In the above example, change the 2 in cell B1 to a 0.
The source depth table is not deleted after using this command. You can change the name of the new column by selecting Table | Table | Column Properties.
