importdata cuts my files in half!

drct = 'S_up_';   
top = importdata(strcat(drct,'200.txt'));

The attached .txt file is 5000 rows tall, but when I use importdata or load, it only loads the first 2500 rows.

There is no header, only straight data. I also tried specifying space delimiter but the problem persists.

So it exactly cuts my data in half, Weird.

The file actually has 2500 rows, this is the end of the file:

When I open the file you have attached (outside MATLAB), it only contains 2500 rows. Perhaps you meant to attach a different file? Or perhaps you are mistaken in thinking the file has 5000 rows?

Hi Chris, it turns out the problem was in the path setting, about 100 lines earlier in the code! I thought it was getting cut in half because of the last time value but it turns out it was just loading a completely different file.

Anyway, your comment helped me locate the problem. Thanks so much!
