- This new version will accept text files or data files with
- separators of comma, or TAB. It will also strip "" from
- around text fields - certain spreadsheets differentiate text
- from numerical data by enclosing it in quotes.
-
- When loading a file which is not native chartdraw type it
- must be dragged either to the iconbar icon or to the edit
- window. Chartdraw will only respond to a double click on a
- chartdraw type file. Files which chartdraw will attempt to
- load are text (&FFF), data (&FFD) and CSV (&DFE). When
- loading these "foreign" formats an error box will open,
- asking whether the file contains what I am currently calling
- header information. This refers to the main title and
- sub-title fields. If the file does then click OK. If not
- click on NO. The file will then be treated assuming only the
- labels and up to four data fields are present. Have a look
- at the new format data files on the disc.
-
- There are some new editing features. You can delete a column
- of data from the edit window menu. CTRL/SHIFT/COPY will
- delete the current ROW of data and close up the gap.
- CTRL/SHIFT/INSERT will insert a blank row ready for new data
- to be inserted.
-
- This current version is an interim version. Let
- me know if you have any problems (send the disc back).
- Suggestions are always gratefully received.
-
- Note that this version has NOT been released into the public
- domain.
