Comments

The new method of defining assemblies, starting in version 11.0, allows you to have an assembly or model containing one or more subassemblies (designated by the *BeginAssemblySelection block). Each assembly has an associated data file and the *DataLabel statement provides the label for that data file. Therefore, the instance of the assembly using that data file in the Model Browser will reflect this label.
