Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.5.1
Operating System: WinXP
Hello,
I need your held with this.
I have created an Import Filter in Origin (.oif).
Now i want to create a custom menu button that prompts me to open a .dat file and automatically uses the .oif File to take out the relevant data.
As you may know I need the "Labtalk script" for this
something like this:
getfile:"Ask for path";
impfile fn:="path" fi:="D:\ASCII_Import.oif";
would be great if this works for multiple files! |

Your impfile should work fine, so your real question is importing MULTIPLE files.
Here is some code that imports files found in ..\Samples\Import and Export:
// BEGIN SCRIPT
dlgfile gr:=ASCII mu:=1; // browse to Samples\Import and Export
loop(ii,1,fname.GetNumTokens(CRLF))
{
file$ = fname.GetToken(ii,CRLF)$;
impfile fn:=file$
fi:=VarsFromFileNameAndHeader.oif
location:=0;
}
// END SCRIPT
The filter file is stored in the same location (location:=0) as the data files:
S15-125-03.dat
S21-235-07.dat
S32-014-04.dat
dlgfile uses the mult-file option (mu:=1) to populate the fname$ variable with multiple lines.
fname.GetNumTokens(CRLF) returns the number of files (one per line)
fname.GetToken(ii,CRLF)$ returns the next filename. |
