Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): Pro7.5
Operating System: XP

Now, I have two column. First column's values are Text¡]string¡^ and second column's values are numbers. How can I get the numbers of second column by using the text¡]string¡^ of first column.

Ex. Data_A[1]=a, Data_A[2]=b, Data_B[1]=2, Data_B[2]=3
I want to use the property string "b" and return value "3".
My idea seems Data_B(b)=3, but this method is wrong due to "b" string.

I want "Data_B(b)=3".String "b" is xvalue and Number 3 is "yvalue"(col(B)) accroding to xvalue. Not Data2_A[2]$=test.

Sounds like you have a worksheet with two columns, the first has string values and the second has numeric values...

A B
a 2
b 3
c 4

You want to find the numeric value for a given string. If that's correct then this will work...

%A=b;
nn=0/0;
for(ii=1;ii<=wks.maxrows;ii++) {
if(cell(ii,1)$==%A) {nn=cell(ii,2); break};
};
nn=;
NN=3
