Loading ASC Files

Command: File -> Load -> ASC Format...

ASC format is the standard import/export format for DataLab data. After clicking the command Files/Load/ASC Format, the user has to select the ASC-file to be loaded.

This dialog for loading files provides more information on the data files than common file dialogs. In addition to the filename, the dialog shows the comment stored along with the data. This should help to find a particular file more easily. The list of available files can be sorted by any column by simply clicking the corresponding heading.

In order to select any file which is located outside the working directory of DataLab you can invoke the common Windows file dialog box by clicking the button Use Windows Explorer.
