Reading data from a file (not importing)

Postby roesm » 14 Nov 2012

I would like to read the contents (in real-time) of a small text file in EL to use the information as inputs to a study. Is there an easy way to do that?

e.g. the opposite of: print(file("C:{file}"), d1, d2, d3...

TIA

Mike

You can use the Elcollections for that. Do a search on the forum for more discussions on this. With the installation files, there is also a word file with explanation and examples how to use it.

First have a look at http://www.multicharts.com/discussion/v ... 16&t=10094
