I have data in a csv file. The first row has labels, and the first column, too.

Datos = Import["C:\\Users\\jodom\\Desktop\\Data.csv"]

Tha data in the csv file is that:

{{"No", "Vol", "Vel"}, {1, 500, 45}, {2, 700, 67}, {3, 350, 87}, {4, 
123, 23}, {5, 587, 45}, {6, 435, 89}, {7, 896, 65}, {8, 125, 
45}, {9, 476, 27}, {10, 987, 80}}

I put those csv data into a dataset:

B = Dataset[Datos]

You can check it out as an image here,on how it has seen on wolfram after the import: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B56r_V66BiodQUhUMWNHcHZFOWc/view?usp=sharing

Now I want to convert the first row that has the labels, into a head or label of the dataset, and the first column into a label column, so I can get data from this dataset, like 

Dataset[labelrow, labelcolumn]

    $\begingroup$ can you post your image here instead rather than a google drive link. And maybe reduce the size of the dataset and paste it in the question as well. Right now your post is not very helpful for the reader. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ see if the image format is a .PNG which should work. There is a picture tab close to where you wrote the question which should ask you for a picture input $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ why don't you make up an example with 3/4 rows and columns and just post as text. $\endgroup$

As of 11.2, I would suggest doing either:

Import["test.csv", "Dataset", "HeaderLines" -> 1]

or

Import["test.csv", "Dataset", "HeaderLines" -> {1, 1}]

enter image description here

    $\begingroup$ Mathematica can't always correctly infer the import format so Import[test.csv, {"CSV","Dataset"}] is a safer option. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ If the extension .csv is given, it should be able to infer the format. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @jodomofo i dont understand what you mean? The answer I posted is clearly a Dataset and you can get the value by row and by column. I dont understand what else you require? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ yes it is, but it has to look like a table, 'cause it will use in an inform. And, after this, i wil have to operate with each colum... Check what a do in the answer that i published... it has to look like this, and funcion like a dataset. drive.google.com/file/d/0B56r_V66BiodU0lDblRnaHFiZjg/… $\endgroup$

As the OP,you have a .csv file like:

Then you just use SemanticImport

SemanticImport["Data.csv"]

Of course,if you have a data like:

data = {{"No", "Vol", "Vel"}, {1, 500, 45}, {2, 700, 67}, {3, 350, 
   87}, {4, 123, 23}, {5, 587, 45}, {6, 435, 89}, {7, 896, 65}, {8, 
   125, 45}, {9, 476, 27}, {10, 987, 80}}

You can get a Dataset

SemanticImportString[ExportString[data, "CSV"]]

I have already do something.... 

data1 = {{"No", "Vol", "Vel"}, {1, 500, 45}, {2, 700, 67}, {3, 350, 87}, {4, 123, 23}, {5, 587, 45}, {6, 435, 89}, {7, 896, 65}, {8, 125, 45}, {9, 476, 27}, {10, 987, 80}} 

data2 = Drop[data1, 1] 
data3 = Dataset[data2] 
data4 = data3[All, <|"No" -> 1, "Vol" -> 2, "Vel" -> 3|>]

But if you see, i have to delete the first row, to create the labels....there is a way to do that without deleting the first row? another thing....can i do the samething with the rows>

What you can do is this:

association = AssociationThread[ First @ data, ## ]& /@ data; (* data = Datos *)

dataset = Association /* Dataset @@ (
    association // Query[ All, Lookup[##, "No"] -> Part[##, 2 ;; 3] & ]
)

Mathematica graphics

Then

dataset[ 2, "Vol" ]

700
