Hello,
I have a column of data which only fills the cell when there's a change in the previous value. However, I need to have all the cells in the column filled, such that if there's a blank cell, it's filled by the value of the cell directly above it. I'm trying to write this into a simple script that I can run in LabTalk during a batch import using the import wizard. This is my first attempt, acknowledgedly poor:
if (col(b)[i] == NANUM) col(b)[i] = col(b)[i-1];
Full disclosure, I'm a LabTalk novice at best, but I'm trying to learn quickly. Any help would be very much appreciated.
Regards,
Dave

Assuming that the first row always has a value, the script could be:
range rab = col(b);
val = rab[1];
loop(ii,2,rab.GetSize())
{
if(rab[ii]==NANUM) rab[ii]=val;
else val = rab[ii];
}
Otherwise you can pick some arbitrary value:
range rab = col(b);
val = 0; // This be used until a real value is found
loop(ii,2,rab.GetSize())
{
if(rab[ii]==NANUM) rab[ii]=val;
else val = rab[ii];
}
