ASCIIDATCOUNT does not work in DIAdem 2011

[Newbiee]

Hi

I get an errror message "variable is undefined: ASCIIDATCOUNT" in DIAdem 2011. The code uses ASCIIDATCOUNT to populate an array in a report (attached code)

Looks like DIAdem 2008 accepted ASCIIDATCOUNT

Advice on what command replaced ASCIIDATCOUNT in DIAdem 2011

The original ascii gpi dll is not automatically registered in DIAdem 2011.

To make the script work again you have to register it.

Select the following menu entry:

Settings->Options->Extensions->GPI Extensions ...

Press "Add" and select "GfSAscii.dll"

Press "Close"

Save Desctop.ddd and restat DIAdem.

Afterwards the scripts should work again.

P.S.: The functionallity of the ascii dll was replaced by NI dataplugins but I am not sure what your script is doing. If you post an example of your data and describe it a little it might be easy to create a dataplugin for it. Maybe there is already a dataplugin for your format on ni.com/dataplugins
