Write JPEG file.vi automatically overwrites

[MEastwood]

Hi,

Im using the "Write JPEG file.vi", i wire the path i wish to save the file to from earlier in my program and this cannot be changed. My problem is that if the file already exists, the vi automatically overwrites it without prompting the user. How can i make it possible to prompt the user? Possible some check between the wired path and the directory before running the vi?

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

you can use the "Check if file of Folder exists.vi" to check if your file already exists.

Which LabVIEW version do you use?
