Data Table Question with LARGE amount of data.

[Ollie]

I need to extract data from a table of data that has both rows and columns. The coordinates are based on a river level. Can someone give me the EASYIST way to accomplish this? I have attached the table that I need to extract the data from.

It looks like you have already determined that the datatable object will be the best way to do this. When you are creating the object, you must enter the absolute path to your spreadsheet file. Then, you have to create some type of connection (i.e. a pushbutton or timer) that will send a true to the import data member of the datatable object. After these two things have been done, you will be able to access the data using the A3 - K133 data members.
