PeakAreasUnipolar.ipf issue

Hello to all. I am trying to use the PeakAreasUnipolar.ipf procedure to autofind peaks and then integrate the area underneath them. I believe that this is the proper procedure to use from the Technical Notes. However, the procedure fails because of an error that goes as so: Macro Execute Error expected wave name, variable name, or operation Error in PeakAreasUnipolar.ipf:AudoIdentifyPeaks g_bx=box Clicking edit procedure brings up the following: Function Exectution Error While executing SetDataFolder, the following error occurred: No child data folder of that name exists. I honestly can't make heads or tails out of this. The example experiment file in the Technical Notes works just fine. My experiment file is exceedingly simple, just a bunch of 8192 point waves. Any ideas of what I am doing wrong? |

That's pretty old and quite cryptic code to be hacking.
I think you'd be better off using
instead.
Mainly for use by Multi-peak fitting 1.3 but it may contain routines you can use in your own experiments. Examine the "Multi-peak fit" example experiment to see how the routines are used. Contains routines to automatically examine data and deduce the number of peaks and provide good guesses for gaussian style parameters.
(The error you saw happened because you didn't call InitializeMostEverything() which creates those global variables).
