Displaying XY Graph data on a Table

[Archais]

I have data that I am graphing point by point on an XY Graph (Phase
Angle vs. Frequency) as each point is acquired. I have the graph down
packed, but I also want the actual XY data to display on a chart, or
something I can scroll through. In other words, I want to be able to
look at a data point on the graph and find the X and Y point on the
Table. I have a cluster of data going into a XY Graph through a Chart
Buffer. When I try to route that data to a table as well, I get a
broken wire. I have tried unbundling the cluster and building it into
an array and sending that into the table, but I still get a broken
wire. All I want to do is display the data numerically beside the
graph. I don't even need the table to display point
for point. I
just need it to display all the data when its finished collecting it.

the xy graph is an x array bundle with a y array. Both arrays are numeric. A table is a 2D array of strings. That's why you have a broken wire - data types do not match. Use one of the conversion functions on the string palette to convert the numeric arrays to string arrays and then the build array to create a 2D array that can be wired to the table.

Thanks ... This works when the Table is outside the For Loop for Data
collection, but come to find out, I need the Table within the loop so
that it Updates each time I get a point. I tried running the Array to
the Table, but I get a Dimension Conflict error saying I have two
arrays wired together, but the dimensions are not the same.

I tried opening your example, but I get an Load error code 8: Could
Not Load VI Source. I am using LabVIEW version 5.1 if that is any
help.

Here is a picture of the diagram since I don't have a convenient way of saving to such an old version of LabVIEW.
