Hi

I have some data that is easily copied out of another application in a format like this;

station  tape      compass           clino

1                                             

2                      22.6      112       0

3                      25.3      244       10                                

2                     

4                      30         8          -23

5                      30         134       11

And with a bit of simple but tedious manipulation I can get it into a Therion friendly;

data normal station newline tape compass clino  

1                     

                          22.6    112       0

2

                        25.3      244       10

3                                             

data normal station newline tape compass clino                                                  

2

                        30         8          -23

4

                        30         134       11

5

And this works perfectly.  I am looking to reduce the manipulation required however. Is there a way I can get the first format to work directly in therion?

I have tried;

data normal station newline to tape compass clino

and

data normal from newline to tape compass clino

and some other variations, but they always give a ‘missing data’ or ‘too much data’ error at the start or end of the data block.

Ideas anyone?
