Origin Version 6.0:
Operating System: Win2000

I would like to Import an ASCII File by the commands:

window -n wks input;
getfile *.txt;
open -w %A;

But now the worksheet has the name of the ASCII file. Sometimes very strange (special characters will be cutted and so on)

How can I rename the worksheet ("with the unknown name") to my original name (Input [for Example])?


Thanks

The quick solution is to add this after the open command...

win -r %H input;

However, if you create the wks with win -t (and use a template) rather than win -n you can prevent the wks from being renamed in the first place by saving the proper ASCII options with the template.
