Hi all,

how can I assign automatically (now I use the Import Assistant) the shortnames and units of a file, that looks like this:

(some header)
...
( Time[mus] value )
0.0000000000 0.0000000000
0.0001646100 1.0395725362
...
(some data)
...
92116.96966983793 1.039564646
*END
*BLOCK
Measurement time [s] : 1800
Mean countrate [kHz] : 73
( Time[mus] value )
0.0000000000 0.0000000000
0.0001646100 1.0395725362
...
(some data)
*END

Hi,

You mentioned that you are using “the Import Assistant”. Do you mean the Import Wizard? The Import Wizard allows you to specify a row in the file. Then the information in the row will be recognized as the short names of the target worksheet. Also, variables from headers can be extracted.

Please refer to the following pages for more information:
