Juliette,
You can read the text (ascii) data directly into ferret without converting it.
You would use a command like:
FILE/VAR=volcano volcano.txt
That would work for a text file with one column, containing data. If the file has two columns, say "year" and "volcano" you can use:
FILE/VAR="year,volcano" volcano.txt For more details see the manual page on reading ascii data:

Thanks in advance, Juliette
