Language Workshop.
Log in to the 1010data Insights Platform and open a Macro Language
Workshop window.

necessary to specify a base table for the query. While there are several methods for
completing this task, the most straightforward is to use the Load
option in the File
menu.
To specify a base table:
Click File > Load .
The left pane of the Macro Language Workshop
displays a file browser.
Browse to the table that will be used as the base table for the query and click
it.
The table object will be highlighted and the Base
button will be available.
Click Base.
The following code is entered in the left pane of the Macro Language
Workshop.
<basetable="pub.demo.retail.item"/>
