Hello at all!
I'm a novice under Origin. Since years, i've made codes in Languages like C++, VB, Java, etc.. and recurrent topics are the capability of defining local and global variables, public and private functions, data types, and so on..
But searching in standard origin documentation i've found that only 26 string variables are able to be used. It's really true??, Are there a way for work with strings, integers, floats, structures and all data types well improved in another languages?.
In addition, how could you define a local string variable? . How would you declare a pointer to a variable?
I think that worksheets are the only way for do that, or in the worst case, for approximating to a similar data environment.
Or maybe, the ask for my question is to build my whole application in VB, and access Origin functionalities externally.
Thanks, I'll be glad to receive comments.

I think that all (or at least most) that you're asking for will be available with OriginC in Origin 7.0. Check out the new features on OriginLab's home page.

LabTalk was never intended as full-featured programming language like C++, VB, etc. LabTalk commands and functions make no distinction between floats, integers, doubles or other types, so there is no need for declarations. There is no distinction between global and local variables, either. If a variable is needed only for a specific worksheet or plot, just save it in a label or UIM object (often hidden) on the worksheet or plot window. (That also works well for getting around the 26 string variable limitation.) If you need anything more than LabTalk has to offer you can always build your own DLL and call it from Origin. Origin C will make all of this much more efficient, but the tools were already there for developing useful applications.
