Greetings!

What is the best strategy to import the following text file (produced by Instron software):
Specimen properties : Specimen label,"2"
Specimen properties : Anvil height,"85.00000",mm
Specimen properties : Thickness,"1.00000",mm
Specimen properties : Width,"10.00000",mm
Specimen notes : Specimen note 1,"AAABBBCCC"
General : End date,"Monday, July 05, 2021 3:56:46 PM"
Test : Rate 1,"50.00000",mm/min

Time,Extension,Load
(s),(mm),(N)
"0.00000","0.00000","-0.00097"
"0.10000","0.00659","-0.01781"


Thank you.

For now I leave the upper part of the file and import the header and data below as quoted texts.
Now I want to convert text to number by removing surrounding quotes for each cell:
wreplace type:=str find_str:="%(quote)" replace_str:="" lookin:=active_sheet;


However this command doesn't have an effect.
I consider that the issue is in specifying double quote character in find_str.
https://www.originlab.com/doc/LabTalk/ref/LT-Keywords suggests to use \" or %(quote), but none of these work.

What do I miss?

Have you tried Data Connector(menu Data->Connect to File->Text/CSV)? It automatically handles the quotes in the data.

I don't want to use the CSV data connector in this case.
Can you check the correct usage of quotes in the LT snippet above, please?

Thank you for another discovery in the Origin world!
Where do I read more about <[<">]> syntax?

If you run:

wreplace -d;

It will open the dialog.

Fill out the dialog and in the theme flyout menu (arrow button), choose Generate Script to dump the code. You'll see that fancy bit that way.

Got it!
Thank you for sharing this smart way of getting the required piece of code.

I would be great to have the Generate Script arrow button for Find and Replace dialog called from GUI, since currently it doesn't have this :)
