Hi all,

The XY graph display on LV front panel after test. How can I copy this XY graph and insert into excel file?

Thank you very much for your help.

If I understand correctly, then you should be able to do this a couple of different ways:

Option 1

Right click on the XY Graph and choose Export --> Export Data to Excel

Option 2

1. Right click on the XY Graph and choose Export --> Export Data to Clip Board

2. Open Excel and paste the data

Hi,

Thank you very much for your reply. I can manually copy and paste the XY graph into excel, but I would like to do it by labview code since data already save in excel by labview test program.

Depends on what you want out of it.  A picture?  The data?  No longer applicable...

Hi,

I would like to copy the picture of XY graph to insert into excel. Will labview support this?

Do you specifically need it in Excel or would a separate bmp or jpg/png work?

Hi,

I refer to insert it into excel since report is in excel format, but if it's too hard to do so I can save it in another format.

Either way, will labview support this? Anyway, thank you very much for your quick reply.

If i understand the question, this is easily done.  Right-click on the terminal of the graph in the wiring diagram, and select create->invoke node->Export Plot Data To Excel.  You can also select "Export Image" if this is what you want.

You are already using the Report Generation Toolkit?  There is the "Append Control Image to Report.vi" that would make this easy.

Hi,

Thank you, I can use "Export Image" option but I can not find "Export Plot Data To Excel" option. I am using Labview 8.6, does it have Export Plot Data To Excel option?
