SetInputData [ClassedPostLayer]

The SetInputData method is superseded by SetInputData2. Please consider using the more recent version. SetInputData has been retained for backward compatibility.

SetInputData sets the classed post map input data file and columns.

The SetInputData2 command should be used instead of SetInputData when the worksheet being loaded is an Excel file where the sheet name needs to be specified. It can also be used to specify any data import options when loading a data file.

Syntax

object.SetInputData( DataFileName, xCol, yCol, zCol, LabCol )

Parameter	Type	Required/ Optional	Default	Description
DataFileName	String	Required		This provides the path and file name of the data file.
xCol	Long	Optional	1 (Column A)	This provides the column containing X values
yCol	Long	Optional	2 (Column B)	This provides the column containing Y values
zCol	Long	Optional	3 (Column C)	This provides the column containing Z values
LabCol	Long	Optional		This provides the column containing symbol labels.

Example
