[Scilab-users] Find the error -line length

[Rafael Guerra]

In Win7 Scilab 6.0.0  it only worked with Jan's recommendation (replacing -999 to -9), with or without header.

The original file seems to have numeric data lines with total number of characters varying from 3270 to 4172 per row.

There must be a limitation somewhere, in Windows or Scilab 6.0.0 ?

It has to do with the line length , try to replace -999 with -9
