Importing String Information
To import string information, the user should access the
general string import option via the file menu item (File +
General string import). The select string file to import
dialog box is activated (Figure 1.13). The user must select
the ASCII file to be imported. The only requirement is for

Once the file has been chosen, the import data dialog box is
activated showing the ASCII file information (Figure 1.14).
At this point the user should select the number of comment
lines and how columns are separated. The number of
comment lines can be chosen in two ways. The first is to
type a number in to the appropriate text box (# Comment
lines), or by clicking in the last comment line in the file
preview box and then clicking on the button next to the
#Comment Lines text.
