Hello all,

I am have a folder of csv files to import to Origin as worksheets. The problem is that, the first 35 lines of the csv file is status messages(with 2 columns of data) and the actual data is from the 37th line(with 7 columns of data). So, what i want is an imported worksheet with 2 columns from rows 1-36 (other can be null) and the rest 7 columns with the data. But, when I import with the delimiter option with comma, so origin assumes the whole csv file just to have 2 colummns.

I have tried importing with worksheet template but the result is a worksheet with 2 columns of data nad rest null.

Is there a possible way to do this?

Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): 9.3
Operating System: win 7

such coding! much wow!

Hi,

Have you tried Import Wizard? I think Import Wizard is very helpful when you are importing a file with many lines of header.

Please take a look at this tutorial and see if this applies to you:
