[SOLVED] Matlab data reading excluding headers

[von Moltke]

Hello there,

I have txt. files which are recorded by some oscilloscope in the format:

LECROYSDA813Zi,51921,Waveform
Segments,1,SegmentSize,20000002
Ampl
-0.075
-0.075
0.075
-0.06875
0.0625
-0.0625

How can I get the only the amplitude data into MATLAB, without deleting header lines in the txt.?

Thanks in advance..

In "Current Folder" window in Matlab, klick right mouse button on a file that You want to import, and then choose "import data" from menu.
After that You just declare the "number of text in header lines" at the top right side of the import wizard window

Hello again,

A friend of mine proposed a single code fragment:

----
fid = fopen('text.txt','rt');
datas = textscan(fid','%f','headerLines',3);
data = datas{1}
fclose(fid);
----

and it worked! Wanted to announce here..
