Hello,
I just upgraded my Origin to version 7.5 only to find that my old programs that were written in version 7 do not work. This problem seems very simple, I have one line of lab talk that does not work. in Origin 7.0 if you enter the following in the script window you get the name of the first dataset plotted in the active graph layer...
%R = %(%H,@D);
%R=;
Data1_B
which is correct!
Now when I execute these 2 lines in version 7.5 I get:
%R = %(%H,@D);
%R=;
% (%H,@D)
Can anyone please explain why this no longer works and how I can fix it?
I want the name of the first dataset plotted in the first layer of a graph. In origin 7.5 this is conveniently possible using Origin C:
string dsYName = graph.Layers(0).DataPlots(0).GetDatasetName();
However this code is not implemented in version 7.0, and I still want to use the same scripts on computers running this version.
Thank you, Evan.

Hi Evan,
%(n,@D) will give you nth plotted dataset in all versions of Origin. The %(%H, @D) notation is intended for worksheets although it might have also worked for graphs in previous versions.
