That way everything in on one page and all I have to do is to plot them. My problem is though, that for each file the first column is a function of x while the second one is a function of y. So they come in pairs but Origin will automatically import only the very first column as x and all the others as y. I then have to manually select every second column and change it's properties. Is there a way to automate this, that every other column that is generated from an import is automatically set to x rather than y? Thank you for all suggestions and Best Regards, Martin [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature. Check here to subscribe to this topic.
