Since temperature values must be entered into ALTA in absolute scale, is there a way to automatically convert temperature values in the Data Folio that are in Celsius and Fahrenheit to Kelvin or Rankine?

To convert temperature values into absolute scale, you must first be sure that you have selected the cell(s) within the stress column of the ALTA 6 Data Folio that you want to convert. Next, select Convert Temperature from the Data menu, as shown next.

From the Convert Temperature submenu, select the type of conversion that you would like to perform on the selected cell(s). You can also select the Place Original Values in Subset ID option if you want the initial temperature values (before they were converted) to be placed into a Subset ID column. If the current Data Folio does not contain a Subset ID column, then one will automatically be inserted into the Data Folio to accommodate this process.
