Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5
Operating System: 2000

I got datasheet with several columns sorted as XYXYXY...
but for some cases the X value exist while Y value doesn't exist instead of a dash symbol (-) in worksheet, if I use line+symbol style to plot data, the line to connect the symbols is not continuous because the invalid data I mentioned are also plotted.
So how to delete the invalid data (both X and Y) in batch?

Thanks
Younger

Hi Younger,

page.connect=1 will connect the points on both sides of the missing value(s).

Thanks, Mike!
It really does work.
But is there a command to remove dash(-) in worksheet? This will make the worksheet look nice.

Regards,
Younger

Younger, try this while your XYXYXY... worksheet is active.

sort.wksname$=%H;
sort.missing=1; // treat missing values as largest
for(ii=1;ii<wks.ncols;ii+=2) {
%A=wks.col$(ii).name$;
%B=wks.col$(ii+1).name$;
get col(%A) -e nrow; // # of rows
sum(col(%B));
nval=sum.n; // # of (non-missing) values
sort.c1=ii;
sort.c2=ii+1;
sort.r1=1;
sort.r2=nrow;
sort.cname1$=A: %B;
sort.wks(); // move missing values to bottom
sort.r2=nval;
sort.cname1$=A: %A;
sort.wks(); // restore order of non-missing values
wo -s ii nval+1 ii+1 nrow; // select missing values and their Xs
menu -e 36442; // execute Edit > Delete
};

I copy the code to script window and cannot execute them. What's the problem?

Sorry I have no experience on programming in Origin.

FYI, select all lines and press Enter to execute from the script window.
