Hello ,

I want to import ASCII files with labtalk by using a filter I created. I looked on the internet but couldn't find a solution.

My ASCII files (3 types, I defined a filter (*.oif) for each type) are not simple to import (skip different columns, header lines to ignore ..) and I am not good with coding. That's why i defined a filter for each type and I want to import the files by using the filters in labtalk. Hope your answers will help me. Thank you in advance.

I am using this code that Ipicked up from origin examples (I am not at all good with codes ) :

// Open a dialog for the user to select one or more files
dlgfile group:=*.* multi:=1;
// The filter file needs to be in the same folder as the data
impFile filtername:="filter1.oif" location:=data;


I want to enter the path of the filter (C:\Users\Tochiba_pc\Documents\OriginLab\2017\User Files\Filters\filter1.oif) in the code, so that it won't have to be in the same folder as the data. I guess it's simple to solve ...

Hi K.F,

Sure. You can specify the path of the filter directly. For example:

impFile fname="C:\Sample.wav" filtername="C:\Program Files\Origin8\Filters\wav.oif";


More information can be found here:
