Hi,
This guy has a perl script which will translate Agilent (HP)
ChemStation data files to simple xy data table for subsequent use in
graphing software. He is willing to send you his source code for this
if you email him.
http://bluebox.ces.uoguelph.ca/utilities.shtml
With this source code you should be able to find his functions which
deal with the file format and go from there in you VB application. The
*.ch files are raw x,y data for A/D Detector “x”, Channel “y” and
appear to be basic text.
On the Agilent website I found several utilites and one of them
exports data from Chemstation to Excel, so you may be able to simply
use the macro or incorporate it into your VB program.

Dear Webadept,
I contacted the link you give below and he states that his scripts
will not open the .CH files I am interested in. Would you please try
again.
Regards,
Chemguy

Can you post on a website a link to one of these files you are
interested in so I can take a look at it?

Just for future questions as well, normally it is better to get back
to your researcher before the question expires, but as I suggested in
my previous CR, I'm willing to help if I can. As soon as you have them
on a webserver or FTP somewhere, post your CR here and I'll take a
look at the files and see if either I can do it or if I can find a
program which does.
Thanks again,

Dear Webadept,
I appreciate the effort on your part and I appologize for my slowness
of response. I am setting up a web page so that I can get the files to
you. As soon as I do, I'll post it here (Hopefully will be tomorrow.)
Regards,
