Hi, Tom, Thanks, I suspected this might be the case. i was playing around with the data last week and was able to get all the points to plot if I broke the dataset into 4 or 5 smaller pieces. So I was reasonably sure that there wasn't a specific problem with any one of the data points. for now, do you know the limit of points i can have without triggering problems? Rich

ok, here goes. thanks! log_Al_vs_pH.ac2 test.gss

Hi, Tom (or whomever), I converted the .gss file to .txt (tab-delimited) and that will upload. My Act2 commands are as follows: Act2> diagram Al+++ on Al+++ vs pH Act2> x 2 9; y -20 0 Act2> go then in the plot view of Act2, I go to open>scatter data>test and that's when I get the error message. thanks, rich test.txt

Hi, I have succeeded in following Tom's recommendations to plot 30 or 40 data points from a .gss file onto an Act2 diagram, but now I'm trying it with a big file- 311 samples. nothing plots and i get the following error message: The instruction at "0x7c910a19" referenced memory at "0x00000000". The memory could not be "read". Once again, I can't upload the .gss file because I get the error message, "You aren't permitted to upload this kind of data file." any insight would be appreciated. thanks, Rich

thanks, Tom, the text file you sent worked just fine, and I'll play with some variations to see what will work. this was just a simple test file to get the ball rolling. your later suggestion was right on the money- now it works in gss as well. thanks very much for the help! rich

Hi, Tom, here's the .gss file, saved as tab-delimited text. when I tried to add the text scatter data to the plot, it didn't work either. thanks, rich wanty test.txt

Hi, Tom, sorry, but when I try to upload the .gss file, I get the message, "Error You aren't permitted to upload this kind of file" the file is very simple- 4 rows and 4 columns as in my original post. if you send me your email address i will send it to you that way. thanks for the help, Rich

Hello all, I am trying to get my data to plot on an Act2 diagram, without success. I am using the following command script in Act2: Act2> diagram Al+++ on Al+++ vs pH Act2> x 3 8; y -10 0 Act2> go with this data set: Sample ID pH Al+++ log a Al+++ mg/l ug/l 04CO-101 04CO-101 6.5 0.0184 -6.176 04CO-102 04CO-102 6.4 0.01022 -6.431 04CO-103 04CO-103 3.5 18.4 -3.176 04CO-104 04CO-104 7.5 0.01 -6.4 (I couldn't upload the gss file b/c it says I'm not permitted to upload this kind of file). in this case, I used Excel to generate {log a Al+++} and made a column in GSS as a us
