ReadExportFile

requires Analytica Enterprise or higher

ReadExportFile(filename, showDialog)

Reads an array from a file that is in the Export-Import data format. This file format is produced when you use the File → Export menu command when viewing a table.

Local indexes are created for each dimension in the file.

When «filename» does not include a complete file path, the name is interpreted relative to the CurrentDataFolder.

The optional «showDialog» parameter can be set to true to force the file selection dialog to always appear. Doing so allows the user to change which file is read.
