<DIV>Hi Matt,</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks for your reply !</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<UL>
<LI>
<DIV align=left>Sorry, and I don't mean to pick on you in particular, but just
to</DIV>
<LI>
<DIV align=left>emphasize Bruce's response. Did you really think your
question could</DIV>
<LI>
<DIV align=left>be answered with the data files? </DIV></LI></UL>
<DIV>Well, I suppose the data file were necessary to understood what kind of
problem I am seeing and if its really reproducible on some other PC, to be
called is as a problem.</DIV>
<DIV>That’s what I understood from Bruce´s message.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<UL>
<LI>DAthena tries to read any data file, but beamlines seem to be able to
write very odd data files, and
<LI>it is inevitable that some raw data files will cause problems.</LI></UL>
<DIV>I fully understand that different beamlines will produce different type of
files depending on their preference. My message was to check if I can get some
help if I have this kind of data set ! </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<UL>
<LI>Well, what would be your guess at could be going on? What have you
<LI>tried so far?
<LI>I look at those files and two thing come to my mind: a) Column
1
<LI>appears to be the highly useless point number. It seems
perfectly
<LI>believable that DAthena might think this column is the energy column,
<LI>and it appears to be in keV, not eV.
b) Columns 3 to 10 have 3
<LI>significant digits each. Thus, without even trying to read the file,
<LI>it's clear that 9 of the 14 columns are of no use. The
file also
<LI>has an extra line at the end without data.</LI></UL>
<DIV>What I understood so far is dathena doesn’t have an problem to read a
single data file. It works like charm when I open files one by one and select
the energy units in eV.</DIV>
<DIV>The problem occurs during import of multiple files where I can choose
Energy unit to eV but its gets applied to only first file in import. </DIV>
<DIV>Having an Energy unit option in preprocessing tab could be useful ( its
just some wild thought ) so that same setting will be applied to all the files
imported. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Well in the end I can import files one by one but then I have hundreds of
data files, and that’s what made me to subscribe and mail to Ifeffit mailing
list to see if I can get any help.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cheers</DIV>
