   You can't if you want to use ClarisWorks.  Unfortunately ClarisWorks
does not read GraphLink files or take the data into the spreadsheet
easily.  This is because TI was not thinking when they wrote GraphLink.  I
don't know what they thought we would want to do with data collected using
CBL's besides number crunching on the TI-82.  There is a solution and the
hope of another in the near future.  DeltaGraph Pro will read data files
created by GraphLink.  It asks you to choose data type when inserting data
from another file and you choose space delimited data.  DeltaGraph then
reads the data into its spreadsheet as rows.  You can then use a transpose
command to change the data into columns and do some graphing.  You can
also use DeltaGraph to store the data in a readable format for some other
program such as CricketGraph III or Graphical Analysis.  You might want to
do this because DeltaGraph is a bit cumbersome.  I understand from some
others that Excel will do the same things as DeltaGraph does.
  When I talked to the folks at Vernier Software about the original
problem, they gave me the following information.  Their graphing program,
which is cheap and easy to use and does the job, will eventually be able
to read GraphLink files.  They are in the process of rewriting the program
to accomodate GraphLink.  When this will come out for our use is not
apparent, but I am optimistic that it will be in the next 6 months.
   Good Luck and let me know if you come up with any useful information.
