Hello!

I see that this forum is read by the OriginLab software engineers.
I am not sure if this error has been corrected in the current version of Origin, but it was not corrected in four SR's for 6.0,
so it could've propagated into 7.1

Chapter 2 "Labtalk" -> Data Types -> Datasets -> Creating a Dataset (page 17).

quote:

A worksheet with an X and Y dataset can be created with the worksheet command. Use worksheet -t winType template [winName] to create a worksheet named winName based on the template template.



Underlined part is what I believe is an error. It should be "window" instead.

Wasted a lot of time trying to understand why it didn't work in the beginning of my LabTalk programming.. :-(

I just verified that we have fixed this in Origin 7's Help file.

window -t data template [winName]

to create a worksheet named winName based on the template template.


I'm sorry that your time was wasted as a result of the error in the LabTalk manual. Please don't hesitate to contact our technical support department when you run into problems like this. We can quickly clear up any confusion.
