Variables

Display Name	Variable Name	I/O and Type	Default Value	Description
Convert Range	range	Input int	0	Convert Range Option list: wks:Entire Worksheet 0 = Select the entire worksheet. rng:Specified Ranges 1 = Use the specified range.
Input Worksheet	iw	Input Worksheet	<active>	Specify the input worksheet that has the data to be converted.
Input	irng	Input Range	<active>	Specify the input range to be converted.
Data Format	format	Input int	2	Specify the format of the source data. Option list: xcol:X across columns The X values are across columns. ycol:Y across columns The Y values are across columns. noxy:No X and Y There is no X or Y values in the worksheet. The indices of columns and rows will be the output for X and Y values respectively.
X Values in	xlabel	Input int	0	Specify where the X values are. It is available when the Data Format is X across columns. Option list: none:None There are no X values in the worksheet. The indices of columns will be the X values. row1:First Data Row The data in the first row will be the X values. param:Column Label Use the column label row to specify the X values. sel1:First Data Row in Selection Use the data row to specify the X values. Convert Range must be Specified Ranges and Data Format is X across columns or Y across columns.
Y Values in	ylabel	Input int	0	Specify where the Y values are. It is available when the Data Format is Y across columns. Option list: none:None There are no Y values in the worksheet. The indices of columns will be the Y values. row1:First Data Row The data in the first row will be the Y values. param:Column Label Use the column label row to specify the Y values. sel1:First Data Row in Selection Use the data row to specify the Y values. Convert Range must be Specified Ranges and Data Format is X across columns or Y across columns.
Column Label	param	Input string		This is only available when Column Label is selected from X Values in or Y Values in. Specify the label row to use as the X or Y coordinates using its Label Row character. Please refer to Column Label Row Characters for the single character of each column label row.
X Values in First Column	xcol	Input int	0	Specify whether the X values are in the first column. It is available when the Data Format is Y across columns.
Y Values in First Column	ycol	Input int	0	Specify whether the Y values are in the first column. It is available when the Data Format is X across columns.
Trim Missing	trim	Input int	0	Determine whether to trim the missing rows or columns. If, in converting to XYZ any of the coordinates is missing, specifying this option will exclude the data point. 0 = false 1 = true
Output	oz	Output XYZRange	[<input>]<new>!(<new>,<new>,<new>)	Specify three columns for the output XYZ range. These three columns can be in different worksheets and workbooks. See the syntax of Output Notations.

Description

This X-Function is used to convert matrix-like worksheet data (with X and Y coordinates in the first row and the first column) into XYZ column form. It does not require the X and Y coordinates to be evenly-spaced.

Examples

The following source data has X coordinates in the first row and Y coordinates in the first column:

To convert into XYZ form, make above worksheet active and then select Worksheet: Convert to XYZ from the Origin menu or run w2xyz -d; in Command Window to open the dialog of the w2xyz X-Function.
In Conversion Options branch of this dialog, choose X across columns in the Data Format drop-down list. Then select First Data Row in the X Values in drop-down list and check the check box behind Y Values in First Column.
Click the OK button to perform the conversion. You will get the following output worksheet.
