[SAC-HELP] READTABLE question

[Januka Attanayake]

Hi, 
I used READTABLE function as follows but have been getting ERROR 1301: No data files read in.

READTABLE CONTENT P. file_a.txt
Also, I tried XN . in the place of P. without any luck.

file_a.txt (in the same directory) looks like this with column 1 being time and column 2 being amplitude,

1.23E+003  1.40E-010 
1.23E+003  1.10E-010 
1.23E+003  8.18E-011 
1.23E+003  5.43E-011 
1.23E+003  2.80E-011 
1.23E+003  3.23E-012


READTABLE should be a simple operation (right?). Could someone please point out what I am missing here? Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks!

Januka.
