when we define tables, we often need to input many data such as coordinates or time, but it is very conviniet to do it in the form of *.txt. can we import the *.txt into the table to define what we need? for example: time T 100 270 200 269.95 300 269.9 400 269.85 500 269.8 600 269.75 700 269.7 800 269.65 900 269.6 1000 269.55 1100 269.5 1200 269.45 1300 269.4 1400 269.35 1500 269.3 1600 269.25 1700 269.2 1800 269.15

There is no option for direct input of *.txt, but you can write your own programm for this, using any language you like (for example, I use Matlab scripts to prepare tables). Just take a look at Commands manual, TBREAD command - it describes different possible formats for the tables.

You can use following commands to create table,

TBDEF <mac1>

y

1,EXTRAPOLATE

TIME,3

!Enter your time values 1

2

3 !after finishing entering 3 values prostar will prompt for !how many dependant variables, Here it is one (v)

1

V

1

2

3

TBWR <mac1.tbl> !table write

TBGR V !graph V

--------------- Hope this helps

the table defined in star-cd is onle 500 lines, how to increase the lines over 500 lines?
