		<td>Description:</td>
		<td>This example demonstrates the ability to load an external data set into the Runtime
			Gateway and visualize / post process the results.
			<p><br>
			Perform the following steps:
			<ol>
				<li>Start the Runtime Gateway
				<li>From the File menu, select 'Open...'
				<li>From the 'Files of type' option in the file selection dialog, choose 'Data files'
				<li>Browse to the file <a href="beamSimple.db">beamSimple.db</a> and click 'Open'
					<p>Note that this is an Isight Classic database file, generated in iSIGHTv10.
					<p>The  'Import Data From File' dialog recognizes the Isight Classic format, and defaults
					the parameter names row and data start row.
				<li>Click 'Next' in the 'Import Data From File' dialog
				<li>De-select all parameters except BeamHeight, FlangeWidth, WebThickness, FlangeThickness,
				Mass, Deflection, and Stress
				<li>Change the mode of Mass, Deflection, and Stress to output
				<li>Click 'Finish'
					<p>Note that the data is loaded and displayed on the Runtime Gateway History tab
						and the Runtime Gateway is customizes to display only features relevant to the
						loaded data.
				<li>Change to the Parameters tab
				<li>Set a minimize objective on Mass and set Weight for Mass to 0.00778
				<li>Set a minimize objective on Deflection and set Weight for Deflection to 169.49
				<li>Set an upper bound or 16.0 on Stress
				<li>Confirm on the History tab that run 91 is highlighted as the best point
					<p>Note that this is the same formulation and same highlighted best point in iSIGHTv10
				<li>Change the upper bound on Stress to 5.0
					<p>Note that on the History tab, several rows are highlighted as infeasible runs
				<li>Change the upper bound on Stress to 4.0
					<p>Note that on the History tab, many rows are highlighted as infeasible runs, and that
						the best point is now row 66.
				<li>Explore other post processing / visualization tools...
