Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5G SR3
Operating System: Win XP

Hallo,

at home I have origin 8.6 and I'm getting along with Labtalk quite well. If I have a problem, I'm searching in the "scripting guide"-pdf, the labtalk-wiki or this forum and usually I find a solution.

Now I'm trying to write a labtalk-script at work, but here I have only Origin 7.5 and I absolutly have no clue how to work with this version. And all the stuff I find on the internet, doesn't work in 7.5.

I want to import 3 files (.dat) with tabulator separated measuring data. One file with data before the actual measurement, the main data and the third file with data after the main measurement.
So the files 1 and 3 have the same structure and file number 2 has a different header and less columns.
I'd like to import the files with import filters, if that's possible (because of the different headers).
Then I need two plots (I have templates for those plots, so I'd like to use them). In one plot there are the values of file 1 and 3, and in the second plot there is the data of file 2.
How can I put the data of file 1 (column 2, 4,6) as a group in the plot and then add the data of file 2 (also column 2, 4, 6) as a group in the same plot?

I know it's a lot to ask for, but I would appriciate it, if you could give me some hints, how to do some of that stuff.
Or at least somebody knows a good tutorial for labtalk 7.5, where I could get some examples of similar tasks.

Thank you.

Create separate Import Wizard filters for the two file types ( either file-based or worksheet template-based ), then use the information found here:
