I have recently been looking at some standards and I came across some Cu foil data in a two-column .dat format; "energy" and "xmu". (Incidentally, it is standard data taken in '92 by none other than Bruce R. and Matt. N.) Anyway, the data seems to load just fine using either the "xmu.dat" or the "Mu(E)" import profile, and I can remove backgrounds, do both forward and backward FT's and generally manipulate the data normally. Everything is fine until I try to save the chi(k) data. The program displays that it's saving the file, but does not report success. The file is indeed written, but with a file size of zero. Following this attempt, the graph may or may not be stuck in
last plot, and if it is stuck, no amount of frantic clicking on my

Works fine for me. What's the Athena version number? Are you saving it to a place on disk where you have write permission? B BTW -- in the column selection dialog, "xmu.dat" is intended for `xmu.dat' files generated by feff. Measured mu(E) data should be imported as "mu(E)". -- Bruce Ravel ----------------------------------- ravel@phys.washington.edu Code 6134, Building 3, Room 405 Naval Research Laboratory phone: (1) 202 767 2268 Washington DC 20375, USA fax: (1) 202 767 4642 NRL Synchrotron Radiation Consortium (NRL-SRC) Beamlines X11a, X11b, X23b National Synchrotron Light Source Brookhaven National Laboratory, Upton, NY 11973 My homepage: http://feff.phys.washington.edu/~ravel EXAFS software: http://feff.phys.washington.edu/~ravel/software/exafs/
