• Opening a text variable in the Text Editor.
• Opening a data variable, list, or matrix in the Data/Matrix Editor.
• Opening a program or function in the Program Editor.
• Running a program or referring to a function.
Note:
A temporary copy lets you open or execute an archived variable. However, you
cannot save any changes to the variable.
So that you do not have to unarchive variables unnecessarily, the TI-89 Titanium
performs a “behind-the scenes” copy. For example, if you run a program that is in the
user data archive, the TI-89 Titanium:
1. Copies the program to RAM.
2. Runs the program.
3. Deletes the copy from RAM when the program is finished.
The error message is displayed if there is not enough free RAM for the temporary copy.
Note:
Except for programs and functions, referring to an archived variable does not copy
it. If variable ab is archived, it is not copied if you perform
6
ù
ab
.
