Hello, I have a text file with the coordinates of a number of different points, and I would like to plot them using the ListPointPlot3D command. My text file is arranged like this: x1 *tab* y1 *tab* z1 *tab* x2 *tab* y2 *tab* z2 *tab* x3 etc, with nothing but tabs in between. Is it possible to have mathematica automatically parse this file and insert brackets and commas in the proper place, so the result would look like this: {{x1, y1, z1}, {x2, y2, z2}, {x3, y3, z3}} etc? Thank you very much, cubsfan334
