Hello everyone,
I am learning the Optimization in Vensim.
But, when I wanna import dataset, Vensim always report the error.
I followed Venism Help to do it. I don't know what is wrong with that?
I was wondering could anybody help me to solve it?
Thank you very much!
The step from Vensim Help
Found the data from website, saved it by Text and changed to exectric.dat
But, when I imported dataset, it report the error.

Re: Question about import dataset into Vensim
What menu options are you clicking to import the data?

Re: Question about import dataset into Vensim
Can you upload your file?
I've tried importing it and it worked. You can also try importing the file from
C:\Users\Public\Vensim\Models\UserGuide\CHAP18\CALIBRAT\

But, I was wondering how to create the Electric.dat by the data from the website?(https://www.vensim.com/documentation/Mo ... ECTRIC.DAT)
Because, next time I might need to deal the data by myself, not the file that exist directly.
Thank you very much!

Re: Question about import dataset into Vensim
I think you were importing via Model>Import Dataset...
For .dat format, you want the next menu item, "from .dat format..."

Re: Question about import dataset into Vensim
Model->Import dataset works ok Tom, I think in this case the file is saved as "electric.dat.txt" rather than "electric.dat".
