Failure of my code

I wrote a simple script to automate a task in origin, but the script fails after the first few columns. I'm rather confused.

The data looks like this:
x1 y1 x2 y2 x3 y3 ...... col(45)
1
2
3
...
3600

*not every column goes down to 3000
column 45 is special, in that it's a place to hold some values.
for(i=2;i<45;i+2){
max = -100;
for(j=1;j<3600;j++){
if(col($(i))[j]>max){
max = col($(i))[j];
}
}
col($(i)) /= max;
col($(i)) = 1 - col($(i));
integrate col($(i));
col(45)[i/2] = integ.area;
}

The preceeding code works for the first 10y columns, but then it stops working until the last column.
There is a total of 44 columns, x and y alternatingly.

Please help me debug it, thanks.

I suspect we'll need to see the worksheet before we can supply an answer. However, in the mean time I can give you a much faster way to obtain the maximum value of a column. Furthermore, it's independent of the number of rows in the column...

for(i=2;i<45;i+=2) {
sum(col($(i)));
col($(i)) /= sum.max;
col($(i)) = 1 - col($(i));
integrate col($(i));
col(45)[i/2] = integ.area;
};
