Cant Edit Column Headers In exe.

[Wolleee]

Hi all,

Currently running labview 10 developer and have created an express table in the front panel.  I have made the column headers visable and editable.  Now i am able to edit the column headers in labview, but when i create executable i am unable to edit the column headers.

Any Ideas?

Thanks

You can always change the header strings using property nodes.

Are you wanting to edit the column headers manually while the program is running? I believe that there is a boolean control property to enable that -- by default it's turned off.

Sorry, I was posting by phone earlier, so I could not check, but you simply need to enable editable header (see picture) to be able to do so at run time. (If not, they can only be change in edit mode).

Altenbach,

I did that and i created an executable with it checked and not checked, but the same result, I can not edit the column headers from the executable file even though Im able to edit them from the front panel in labview.

is your table a control or an indicator?

(Cannot test at the moment, but typically only controls can be edited at run time. Try changing it to a control and write to it using a local variable.)

Hmm,  It is an indicator,  I am writing data to the table, but i would like the ability to change the column headers.  Would i be able to make it a control and then write to it?

Yes, see the end of my previous message.

Does it work when you run it from within LV or does it fail only when you are in an executable?

As a quick test, simply press Ctrl+m (to toggle to run mode without actually running). See if you can edit it. If you can, you should be OK. I will test later.
