Origin provides flexible ways to create 2D plots. When the Plot Details dialog box is open and displaying plot-level controls in the right pane, you can go directly to the plot data by clicking the Workbook button at the bottom of the dialog. The material in this guide is designed to provide both new and advanced users with specific instructions on how to perform the most commonly used and powerful features in Origin.

Accept the default settings on all pages until you get to the Data Columns page. For simple ASCII files, Origin can auto detect file header/subheader and extract this information to the worksheet headers, such as Long Name, Units, etc.

On import, sparklines were automatically turned on, allowing you to quickly view the shape of the data; the sheet name became the name of the file; and as needed an additional column was added to the worksheet. If an individual data point is edited in this fashion, the data point becomes an Origin object.
