Operating System: Windows 10

Hello everybody,

I am facing a problem when treating a worksheet with a large number of columns. I am importing multiple files (each file has 4 columns) and merge them into one big worksheet, where each file produces a new set of 4 columns. So basically my column pattern looks like this:

A1 B1 C1 D1 A2 B2 C2 D2 A3 B3 C3 D3 .....

Principally I know how to mark a column and set new values to it. I was just wondering if there is a way to multiply each 4th column (so the D columns) by a constant number, without the need to mark each of those columns individually and type the same formula over and over again?

Or even one step further: Is it possible to perform such operation already during the import?

Thank you very much in advance for your thoughts.

Kind regards

Stefan

In the import ASCII dialog, you can add a piece of script for each file import col(D) = 10*col(D).

Dear James,

thank you very much. This is very helpful!!

Do you know if there is a good guide, which shows what things can be achieved by script commands?

Best wishes,

Stefan
