The Histogram filter requires a vtkDataSet on its input. vtkTable is not one since Tables have no inherent shape in a 3D space.
The Table To Points and Table To Structured Grid filters convert vtkTables to vtkDataSets, but in either case you need to tell the filter which columns from the table it can use for the x,y and z coordinates of the vtkDataSet. A hackish way to do the conversion then is to add a column of dummy data to the file and then make a 1D vtkDataSet out of it. Feel free though to add a request for something more direct on user voice and we will consider adding it to upcoming ParaView releases. thanks, David E DeMarle Kitware, Inc.
