I would like to know wether there is a possibility to remove certain characters/numbers/last entry in a columns cell in origin. Situation: importing different files at same time. In other software it was possible to search for character and replacing them. With 470000 entries in a data file it takes very long time to get finished. The problem is that the data files have different delimiters and I try to erase the ';' in one of these files. OpenOffice needs about 1 min - which is quite fast already - to remove all ';' (about 8600!(eight thousand six hundred) pages of data). This would be a useful function in Originlabs wks to do it there. Has anyone another solution to save more time? Is this possible with labtalk script? Thanks in advance!
