I spend most of my time reading in csv files (via ctrl+k) and plotting 2D data. It seems that has become more difficult in Origin2024b. Each time I read in a file with ctrl+k, there now appears a data connector symbol. As I understand it, this prevents me from saving the data when I save the project (which is not what I'd like). It also seems to prevent me from reading in a new data file into the current worksheet. When I ctrl+k Origin warns me the book already has a data connector and I have to remove it, so I remove the data connector and hit Yes at the question. Then I'm able to read in the next file, but the data connector appears again. So I have to repeat this process. It seems the solution is to go to Preferences->System variables and set DDC to -1. I have done this and restarted Origin, but the problem persists. I have also tried setting IPDC to 0, but that doesn't help either. Is there a better solution? Thanks for any help. Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 2024b 10.1.5.132 Operating System:win11 [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature. Check here to subscribe to this topic.
