"[Solved] Reading a select range of rows in an excel (.csv) f"

Lhales

For the life of me I can't get this most simple concept to work.  I have a .csv spreadsheet with 308,000 rows in it. Obviously too big to read in and analyzer. Rather than going into excel and making my own small spreadsheet I'd just like to use read csv and then tell it to use row one as the names and then supply a range of rows to read in.  I can't get anything to actually work. Thanks Lynn

Hi Lynn,

reading only parts of a csv file is currently not possible with RapidMiner. If you are dealing with large amounts of data from which you may want to access only parts, you should consider to setup a database.

Best regards,
