Hi Galaxy,

If you search for "ascii" in the help file (help - W59 help), there's an example there.

Basically, go:

1) file - new - chart, then check "offline".
2) Click the "browse" button that pops up over the symbol tab
3) choose "ascii" (middle option, on top)
4) The first time you load a file, you have to set up the directory, so the next step is to click "add directory", then go set up your directory
5) After the directory is added with your file, you can then choose it from the drop-down list.
6) Pick your file, set up the field order (mark which data point is what), and W59 should plot it
