Origin Ver. 2021b and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin): SR2
Operating System: Windows 10

Hi,

I was trying to add two columns from a book - Book1 with two columns from another one - Book2 - with the sum displayed in a third book - Book3 (please check the image below). I have tried to convert the book s into matrices and then do matrix addition from Script Command, but it didn't recognise the name of the matrices.

Is there a quick, reliable and error-free (as much as possible) way to do? Either through GUI, LAbTalk or Embedded Python? If yes, can I please have the step-by-step recipe on how to do it?

Regards,
Tibi

Hello,

You can use enter this in F(x) cell of column B in Book3 to add B columns of Book1 and Book2.
[book1]1!B+[book2]1!B

See examples in https://www.originlab.com/doc/Origin-Help/Wks-SetColVal-QuickStart

Thanks, Snow
