Hello, does anyone know how to save a table as a .pxp file in IGOR on a Mac computer?
A .pxp file is a proprietary file format used by the IGOR Pro data analysis software on Mac computers. It contains data, graphs, and other information related to an experiment or project.
To save your work as a .pxp file in IGOR, go to File > Save Experiment As and select "IGOR Pro Experiment (.pxp)" from the dropdown menu. Then, choose a file name and save location for your file.
No, .pxp files can only be opened and edited in IGOR Pro. However, you can export your data and graphs from IGOR in various formats that can be opened in other programs.
To ensure compatibility, it is recommended to save your .pxp file in the oldest version of IGOR that you or your collaborators will be using. You can also save your file in a more universal format, such as .txt or .csv, for easier sharing.
If your .pxp file becomes corrupted, you may be able to recover it by opening it in a text editor and looking for any obvious errors. You can also try using the "Recover Experiment" function in IGOR to restore the file. It is always a good idea to regularly back up your .pxp files to avoid potential loss of data.
