Origin Ver. and Service Release (Select Help-->About Origin):
Operating System: OriginPro 8.1G

Hello there,
might be a simple trick, but how can I update this old script to the new Version of 8.1 using Longname/Shortname of the wks as new Longname/Shortname of the matrix.

mat.wksname$ = %H;
win -T M;
mat.matname$ = %H;
mat.w2m();

Thank you!

This script does not care about names, it simply copy the active worksheet to a new matrix.

If that is all you need to do, then just use the new w2m X-Function:


w2m



You can read more about this XF online or from the script window


w2m -h;

Hello CP,

and if I want to have the worksheet's short- and longname as new names for the matrix? As I have to convert a bunch of wks to matrices, so this is why I want to do it via labtalk.

Thanks again!

You can not make the resutling matrix having the same shortname as the source worksheet, unless you can delete the source worksheet after the copying. The following code will prefix the result with M:

%A=%H;
%B=page.longname$;
w2m;
page.longname$=%B;
win -r %H M%A;


While the following code will del the source and name the new matrix accordingly


%A=%H;
%B=page.longname$;
w2m;win -cd %A;
page.longname$=%B;
win -r %H %A;
