Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 8.0 SR3
Operating System: winxp
I tried to link 2 columns in 2 sheets by set column values as: [Book1]Sheet2!col(D)
but get something like: [BOOK1]SHEET2!Book1_D@9: object property not found!
Math cannot be performed on Text column: [BOOK1]POROSITY0_BK1!Book1_D@9
Anybody know how to solve this?
Thanks. |

I tried your method but it doesn't work, so I spent some time to read help and finally found a solution. To refer only one cell in another sheet, first define a range in the "before script" window, then refer to cell in script window use E1(1), E1(2) etc. Strangely, E1[1], E1[2] doesnot work.

You should use "Range" keyword to define a range variable, but not use "double" keyword. So the variable should be range E1 = [Book1]Modulus!col(B)[1]. For more details about range definition, please refer to

To the 2nd question:
Of course, you should change the name of a sheet used in all scripts like other programming languages do. For LabTalk is a high-level, full-featured programming language which can easily access to most of Origin's operation with a simple command, I suggest you to get start with the LabTalk User Guide to get a full view of it. It is a example based guide, so you could easily understand the language with it.

Two more questions:
If i refer to a cell in another sheet using the method you recommend, it doesn't work:
second, if i change something (e.g., the sheet name), should i manually change this name used in all scripts?
The language Origin uses is quite complicated. Is there a simple tutorial? I know help includes everything but it is still too complicated for general users like me.
Many thanks. |

You should first define a range variable in the Before Formula Scripts panel and then assign the variable to another column. The following is an example.
