Hi everyone!
I have to import ASCII data which look like this:
----------------------------------------------
Sample File H:\Conc_measurements_09\dic09\D315_50nm_Qi1_Qa05.C25
Model 3025
Sample # 1 2 3
Start Date 12/21/09 12/21/09 12/21/09
Start Time 14:47:59 14:49:05 14:50:10
Sample Length 01:00 01:00 01:00
Averaging Interval (secs) 1 1 1
Title
Instrument ID 3025 1383 SEPT-02 3025 1383 SEPT-02 3025 1383 SEPT-02
Instrument Errors None None None
Mean 211.05 64.045 18.7683
Min 123 35.7 12.4
Max 322 111 32.4
Std. Dev. 54.6185 21.1955 5.72473
"Elapsed (s)" Concentration (#/cm³) "Elapsed (s)" Concentration (#/cm³) "Elapsed (s)" Concentration (#/cm³)
1 292 1 104 1 32.4
2 295 2 108 2 30.8
3 298 3 109 3 29
4 320 4 111 4 28.4
5 322 5 110 5 27.9
6 291 6 93 6 28.2
7 287 7 81 7 27.9
8 266 8 89 8 27.3
9 276 9 101 9 27.1
10 287 10 82 10 26.8
11 275 11 75 11 25.9
---------------------------------------------
I am only interested in the "Mean" and "standard Deviation" data. Importing only this values is not a big deal with the Import Wizard, but since I have to compare and operate with many of them I would like to have them in columns instead of rows, that is:
- This is how it looks like when I import only the desired data:
A(x) B(Y) C(Y) D(Y) F(Y) G(Y)
Mean 211.05 -- 64.045 -- -- 18.7683
Min 123 -- 35.7 -- -- 12.4
Max 322 -- 111 -- -- 32.4
Std. Dev. 54.6185 -- 21.1955 -- -- 5.72473
- I wish to arrange them in this way:
A(x) B(Y) C(Y) D(Y) F(Y) G(Y)
Mean Min Max Std. Dev.
211.05 123 322 54.6185
64.045 35.7 111 21.1955
18.7683 12.4 32.4 5.72473
(btw, removing the empty lines --, which I guess can be done with the Analysis -> Data manipulation tool, isn´t it?)
I am brand new in Origin (in fact I have started this afternoon) and may be a silly question, but it would facilitate my data analysis.
Thanks in advance!

Hi:
You can use import filter and add script after import to handle your issue. The script will first delete empty columns (supposed column 3 in this example); and then transpose the worksheet by wtranspose X-Function; finally, set the first row as column long name by wrow2label X-Function. The script after import can be something like:
del col(3);
wtranspose;
wrow2label l:=1;
Thanks
Larry
