Extra 1-2
The field Extra2 applies to general settings that are common to all import formats. The field Extra1 applies to protocol-specific settings.
For the StdTextEx format protocol there are four protocol-specific settings described in the table below. The date format and time format must be in accordance with .NET’s coding standards.
The order must be as follows: datestring@numeric
Example of an Extra 1 setting for the StdText can be as follows:
yyyy-MM-dd@numeric
|

Meaning |
|
<DateString> |
E.g the format of the date can be one of the following; yyMMdd, yyyyMMdd, yyyy-MM-dd or yy-MM-dd. |
|
<numeric>
|
Numeric specifies if a column index is to be used instead of a column name. If “@numeric” (default) is not present, the column name is used as a string. Numeric specifies how to interpret the “Column ID”. If @numeric is present in Extra field 1 the Column ID is interpreted as a numeric index of the column and not as a string. Note! It only works if there are no column headers. |
|
<factor>
|
The factor that is multiplied with each value when importing. Valid values are any integer or abs, which takes the absolute value |
|
<warnmissing> |
Used to indicate that missing series in file should be considered as warnings and not be ignored. |
