extract a column and certain range of data in that column from txt file

[bufferlab]

I have .txt file from a labview program which we developed for processing data. This text file has five columns and I want to extract two columns out of those five. Also, I want to select a range of value from that column. There are like 50 text files. Could you please give me a clue how to proceed.

Use IndexArray to "extract" your columns…

That sounds like you need ArraySubset…

That sounds like you need to process those files in a loop…

What have you tried and where are you stuck?

Thank you for your reply. I haven't tried anything as I have no clue how to proceed. Though I have a matlab program for that I want to still use Labview.
