Hello,

I want to import a *.CDF data file (for example a hplc- or gc-chromatogram generated by EZChrom Elite or Shimadzu's Class-VP) to Excel. Excel should display the CDF data as WMF graphics (including integration limits and peak Labels).

How does it work? Does anyone have experience with this topic?
Does anyone know a VB- or VBA-code for this problem?

Thank you for your suggestions and ideas.

Hello,

I want to import a *.CDF data file (for example a hplc- or gc-chromatogram generated by EZChrom Elite or Shimadzu's Class-VP) to Excel.

This part should be pretty trivial.  If the equipments software exports a comma-delimited ASCII file, then importing it into an spreadsheet program should work fine.  Such an array of values can be easily graphed by a typical spreadsheet.

Excel should display the CDF data as WMF graphics (including integration limits and peak Labels).

I don't believe that information is stored in CDF exported by chromatographic software.  So you want the spreadsheet to do what the software itself does.  That's not trivial.

I think if you read a number of textbooks on chromatography, you might learn the techniques involved in coding such a thing.  Can't see how something hacked together would be an improvement on the validated code that comes with the instrument.
