Loading Impulse Generator Data into Mathcad

Hello all,

I am trying to figure out how to go about loading data that is stored in a text file into mathcad.

My hope is to make some plots using the data, and perhaps some other calculations.

I've attached one of the data files to this thread so you can observe the format of the data. This contains data measurements from a High Voltage Impulse Generator.

Could someone show me how to do this by means of an example?

Thanks again!

No problem, if you get rid of the text lines in front of yor data:

If you use READFILE(), you can tell Mathcad to skip over those header lines.

This is particularly handy with one must process multiple files with the same header format.
