function  Status = zImportExtraData(SurfaceNumber, FileName)
% zImportExtraData - imports extra data and grid surface data values into an existing surface.
%
% Usage : Status = zImportExtraData(SurfaceNumber, FileName)
%
% This import function is used to load extra data values for extra data surfaces from an ASCII file rather than
% by typing the numbers in directly. SurfaceNumber specifies which surface number should
% receive the data. Numerical data must be in the ASCII file exactly as it appears in the extra data spreadsheet.
% The format of the ASCII file is a single column of free-format numbers, and the file should end in the DAT
% extension. 
% 
% For details of the ASCII format for grid sag surfaces, see the Chapter on 'Surface Types' in the ZEMAX manual.
