Is there a way to handle files with underscore?
Like data_nk123.txt
Since the underscore is used for the columns of a worksheet after import of multiple data
fdlog.get(A,i)
open -w %A;
...do some more with worksheet %A;
the worksheet name will be set to "datank123"
but the variable %A is still "data_nk123"
OK, 1. I can do some rogramming to adjust %A and extract the underscore in the name if there is any.
2. I also could rename all the data files. This would cause other complications.
But maybe there is another easier way to get around this?
Thanks, Tilman.

Hi Tilman,

This will strip an underscore and do nothing if there is no underscore...

%A=%[%A,'_']%[%A,>'_'];

Even easier...

open -w %A;
%A=%H;
