Is there a way to import multiple ascii files while preserving the directory stucture from which the files are imported?

I would like Origin to create all the necessary new folders for a given windows directory and import the data into the correct folders. I would also like to have files with the same name in different directories, but that's probably a more fundamental issue. Alternatively, the file name could be prepended with the directory name and an underscore, although that would be a little uglier.

If not, it might be a nice new feature to add for the next version.

Thanks,

Hi Eric,

Origin 7 provides considerable control over project explorer through Origin C and you could set up such an import scheme yourself if you're willing to do some programming. It will probably get a little complicated if your data directory structure runs deep, but I'm sure it can be done.
