Select a list of data

[MarcoM]

Hello,

I need to print out a list of acquisition data in a report.

I have a for loop in which every iteration I want to read one data, update the report and then print the report.

Question: How I can select these data which format is a string like

MP1

MP2

MP3

Is it possible to define a varaible that is a sum of a string radix (MP) and a number (1) which encrease each iteration of the loop?

Thanks

Marco

Hello Marco!

You can build a string out of another string and an integer in VBS just with a + operator or better the & operator: Have a look at this example:

Option Explicit

Dim i
Dim Filename

For i=1 To 3
  Filename = "MP" & i & ".tdm"

  Call DataFileLoad(Filename,"TDM","Load")
Next

Hope this helps

Thank you Matthias,

I still have problem in defining the folder from which the data are loaded.

Should I define another variable before the for loop?

How can I set the path in the following command?

Call DataFileLoad(Filename,"TDM","Load")

Best regards

Hello Marco!

Two possible solutions. You can change the DIAdem variable DataDrvUser and set it to your path or you can use a variable in the code and use a full qualified filename (what I would prefer). This is the code:

Option Explicit

Dim i
Dim Filename
Dim Path

Path = "C:\MyData\"

For i=1 To 3
  Filename = Path & "MP" & i & ".tdm"

  Call DataFileLoad(Filename,"TDM","Load")
Next
