Hi,

I have a small problem, with importing,... when import via LabTalk both workbook' names are renamed after the file (i.e. long and short names),... I would need to specify that I want to "rename long name for book only",… I know how to do it manually but how can I specify this option when importing by means of the Labtalk script?

In other words I would need the short names of the newly created workbooks remind unchaged, i.e. book1, book2, etc.

Cheers
Ondrej

// Point to where the data files are
string path$ = "C:\X\";
// Find all files with wild card
findfiles ext:="*.dat";
int numFiles = fname.GetNumTokens(LF);
// Loop over all files
int nFirst = 1;
for(int ifile = 1; ifile <= numFiles; ifile++)
{
string filepath$, file$;
// Get next file name
filepath$=fname.gettoken(ifile,LF)$;
// Parse out just file name without path and without extension
file$ = filepath.gettoken(filepath.getnumtokens(\),\)$;
file$ = file.gettoken(1,.)$;

newbook;
impASC fname:=filepath$;

delete_file(filepath$);
};

For programming help, best to use Originlab wiki site,

http://wiki.originlab.com/~originla/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page

For the specific ascii import options, see this in the wiki:

http://wiki.originlab.com/~originla/wiki/index.php?title=LabTalk:Importing_using_X-Functions

and


http://wiki.originlab.com/~originla/wiki/index.php?title=LabTalk:Data_Import#Partial_Import_with_Option_Settings

To see the listing of the options in each XF, do this

impasc -h

from the script window.

Hi, OnderjMM,

We can rename only the long name by setting options.Names.FNameToBkLnOnly to 1. The options variable of the impasc X-Function is a tree to control the import options. It has a branch called Names to control target workbook naming and the node FNameToBkLnOnly is for specifying whether to rename only the workbook.

Please try the following script:


fname$=system.path.program$+"samples\signal processing\fftfilter1.dat";
impasc options.Names.FNameToBkLnOnly:=1;
