www.alt.lu<br />

File content preview<br />

Any ASCII file containing data in column-delimited format can be imported as long<br />

as the order of columns corresponds to the one requested by a <strong>WellCAD</strong> log type.<br />

Files with *.TXT, *.CSV or *.ASC extension will be recognized and handled as<br />

ASCII files.<br />

As mentioned in 1.3.2.10 Cut, Copy and Paste Logs column delimited data can<br />

also be imported from the Windows Clipboard where it has been buffered when<br />

copied out of an application like EXCEL.<br />

Importing an ASCII file<br />

� Open the File > Import > Single File menu<br />

� From the File Open dialog choose Text Files (*.TXT, *.CSV, *.ASC) as<br />

file type extension<br />

You can also open the corresponding file by dragging it from the file explorer into<br />

the <strong>WellCAD</strong> workspace.<br />

Pasting data from the Clipboard<br />

� Assuming ASCII data has been copied to the Windows Clipboard select<br />

Edit > Paste Special<br />

� Choose the Paste and Text option.<br />

The Paste Special option is available for an active Borehole Document only.<br />

In any case the Text File Import Wizard will open providing some guidance<br />

through the different import options.<br />
