[gradsusr] opening text file data

[Galebonwe Ramaphane]

I have a similar but minor problem. My calling script does not see the text file. I tried putting the text file in the same directory as the calling script. I still failed to read the text file. Do I include the full path of the text file?

James, you can try the following.

*****

'sdfopen ifile.nc'

* ttot = number of lines in text file
ttot = 755
tx = 1
while(tx<=ttot)
fname ='7hA01.out.txt'
  rec = read(fname)
  IO = sublin(rec,1)
   if(IO = 1)
    say fname' > File open error'
    'quit'
   endif
  if(IO = 0)
    t1 = subwrd(rec,2)
    t2 = subwrd(rec,3)
   endif
say ''t1' 't2''

tx = tx +1
endwhile
