Hi,

Is there an option to NOT export the missing value '--' for worksheets? If not, please can you consider this as a request?

Currently I have to convert all columns to text then remove '--'.

Cheers,

Pete

Hi CP,

Thanks for reply.

This simple extra functionality saves me a lot of grief and code and answers most problems I've had with '--' missing value symbol. I'm glad I found out now!

Cheers,

pete

This is already possible in Origin7.5, just that this feature was not put into the GUI. To use this feature,

1. use OC, there is WKS_EXPORT_MISSING_AS_BLANK bit, but that was not in the Worksheet class ExportASCII function documentation. You can find this in oc_const.h

2. Modify file.ogs, find [ASCIIExport] and add the following line

wks.export.cntrl += hex(10);

before the line
save -WH %H %B%A;

Thanks Laurie,

This would be very useful...I've always had problems with the '--'. Clearly users might not (in our case don't) want to see '--' in exported data.

Cheers,

Pete

Hi Peter,

I've tracked the suggestion as QA-5984.
