Ok! Well you probably aren't that interested but I'm making progress.
Here is the code for a button that loads the data, so the first part of
the construction is accomplished. Any suggestions on improvement of
course welcome. by the way, I noticed a typo in the docs, page 40, it says
If you set the uText dgText of a data grid table then the data is
treated as tab delimited text.
the "uText" should be removed.
on mouseUp
--Retreive the Excel CSV (quote and comma delimited) file
answer file "The spread sheet file name?"
put it into theExcelFile
open file theExcelFile for read
read from file theExcelFile until EOF
put it into gTheData
close file theExcelFile
-- Convert the CSV data to tab delimited
put quote & comma & quote into csvPattern
replace csvPattern with tab in gTheData
replace quote with empty in gTheData
-- Leave out the column headers since they are part of the data grid
delete line 1 of gTheData
set the dgText of group "Data Grid 1" to gTheData
end mouseUp
