Transferring a cable correction file from from computer to E4407B using GPIB/VISA

Looks like I just waisted your time.  The Configure Correction program works fine when I change it load a file.  Dang.  Sorry about that.

That's what I tried to explain to you all the time already. It does not matter where these values come from. If you like to enter them in some front panel you can do that. If you rather want to read them from a CSV file, you do that. Or you could load them from a database. You are using LabVIEW to be able to program these things as you want them to work. That's the purpose of using LabVIEW.

I still think you should be using the instrument driver rather than trying to create all those functions from scratch yourself. Respectively you should not modify the existing VIs in that driver. It makes not much sense to put such specialization into an instrument driver. For that you write a program where you can place the function to read your CSV file, then pass the data to the instrument function rather than changing the instrument function to do your custom bidding.

You could at least give some kudos to the people that helped you.
