In Origin 8, the range variable can refer to an entire workbook, worksheet and the whole column only. That is, once you define a range like:
range rr = [book1]sheet1!col(1);
You can access worksheet cells by rr[3], just like Array in C language. We would like to support more general range definition, maybe in 8.1 or later version.
P.S: What's your Origin build number? We haven't released SR2 yet. Maybe you can restore to SR1 follows This Instruction?
Tanks a lot for your answer nevertheless I need to copy datas of a column while deleting the first value (so row 2 to end) to move the origin each time, how can I perform this as the two columns are located in different books.
