datapage location in program

Is there a standard location for placing the stats path in the program?
After the mode/manual?
Before the mode/dcc?
Before or after the tracefields?
I occasionally have problems with stat collection and I've already tried deleting xstats11

The only requirement is that it is BEFORE the first dimension you want to send to the stats. As for the best place? Not sure if there is one, I have put it in several different places, the most common is right after the alignment, wether the alignment is in the program or it is a recalled external alignment file.

It must be BEFORE any TRACE fields and/or DIMENSIONS or they will not go into the stats file.

Though I am new to pcdmis I like it right after my loop statement. which is just after my alignments in case you do not use loops.

I put stats command right after the format/text command.
then use operator comments to fill in the trace fields
FORMAT/TEXT,OPTIONS, ,HEADINGS,SYMBOLS, ;MEAS,NOM,TOL,DEV,OUTTOL, ,
STATS/ON,DATAPAGE,$
DIRECTORY=C:\DATAPAGE V3.33\aaafront,$
DIRECTORY=,$
READ=10,WRITE=20,MEMPAGES=4,DIMENSION NAME,CONTROLCALC OFF,$
STATS/END
COM_SERIAL =COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'Input Serial#'
COM_LOT =COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'Input Lot#'
COM_SUPLR =COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'Input Supplier'
COM_PBS =COMMENT/INPUT,YES,'Input PBS# or PO#'
COMMENT/REPT,
TRACEFIELD/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15 ; Serial# : COM_SERIAL.INPUT
TRACEFIELD/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15 ; Lot# : COM_LOT.INPUT
TRACEFIELD/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15 ; supplier : COM_SUPLR.INPUT
TRACEFIELD/NO_DISPLAY,LIMIT=15 ; PBS or PO : COM_PBS.INPUT

then measure 1st feature.

Thank you very much. Now, the next question...
I set the edit/preferences/dimension to "always update database".
Is it necessary to have a "stats/update" line in the program?

No. If stats were saved, upon execute completion the file will be sent.
