Hello, I work for Gould Academy and am trying to make it really easy for the students to analyse data from there science classes. I wrote some scripts which I thought did that really well. But, the science teachers said it was too hard. So, I have been making it so that Input boxes prompt the students for the filename type, regression type, etc. I now have been thinking that it would be great if there could be an Input box which asks the student what they want to name there graph, function, data, and have them simply call that variable when they want to use the graph, function, data. this is Instead of typing VariableName = FilePlot[] which the science teachers think is forcing the students to become mathematica programmers. Thanks for your help, Charles
