Hi,
I have been trying to ease my data analysis with labtalk but so far unsuccesfully.
My datasets (about 150 of them) contain X_i, Y_i columns, about 35 of each. There are some X_i columns missing and I can't use the option to skip, because those missing columns are random between datasets. I would like to delete all columns which long name starts with X, except X_0, and I would like to apply this to a few datasets (sheets) at a time.
I already played with the option to set a range that includes several X_i columns but for the amount of data I would be doing that until Christmas 
Here is what a dataset looks like:
Thanks in advance! |

oops,
One bracket is missing, check this line:
if (strColLabelName.match(strArgument$) && !strColLabelName.match(strArgumentExclud$))

Hi,
Just copy that in Script Window (Alt+Shift+3).
Change strArgument and strArgumentExclud as you wish.
That LT will loop all pages and columns in current book.
Best regards
string strArgument$="X*";
string strArgumentExclud$="X_0";
int ii, jj;
loop (jj, 1, page.nLayers)
{
page.active=jj;
worksheet -s;
loop (ii, 1, wks.nCols)
{
strColLabelName$=wcol(ii)[L]$;
if (strColLabelName.match(strArgument$) && !strColLabelName.matchstrArgumentExclud$)) wks.colSel(ii, 1);
}
domenu 36442;
}
