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

I have created a worksheet by importing a ascii file mentioned in this thread http://www.originlab.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=5473

I have also created a created a graph using the X column (time axis) and one of the X columns in that worksheet.

Now I want to manually use the Data Selector tool to select a part of that graph. I.e. I define a start and end time to analyse further.

So my question is how do I in OriginC read the start and end time defined manually with the Data Selector tool and create a new work sheet with data from that time period only?

(I want to use the same time period for all Y columns)

The Data Selector tool is controlled with LabTalk commands. (See the doToolBox command in the LabTalk programming reference.) Indices of beginning and end points are mks1 and mks2.

Before you put too much effort into this you should check out an Origin addon which does exactly what you described...

...Instructions for that tool are somewhat fuzzy. The Extract button is not available until after you've made your selection. Click Data Selector, move end points, hit enter. Then use Extract button.
