Result to be saved in folder by string

[pengxin]

Hi everyone

 I would like the user to key in a 5 digits at the front panel first as shown in the first picture. Then this 5 digits would be created as a folder name and to be automatically saved after the measurement is done.  

1)Example :  "C:\Users\12345\0.lvm"

In the 2nd picture i tried to use that method but it is wrong. Please help me on this. 

 Secondly,to extend this, if the user did not change this 5 digits, i want the subsequent measurements to give a sequential name to it.

2)Example  "C:\Users\12345\'today's date'_001.lvm"

                  "C:\Users\12345\'today's date'_002.lvm"

                  "C:\Users\12345\'today's date'_003.lvm" 

                                              .

                                              .

                                              .                                 

                                              . 

Thank you for your assistance

Some of your requirements are coded nelow, hope this leads you on the right track to solve the rest on your own. It's in 7.1 and look my have changed for newer versions, but it's a snippet and should autoatically upgrade to 2009.
