i attach the vi with tis i dono how to run as default as 1st load and stored the values 2nd time run

[jeyanthi]

i try to write it to text file but i dont want to save in the text file..

[MikeS81]

Hi jeyanthi,

use your while loop with shift registers to store values. Why do you connect a timeout, if you don´t have any code in the timeout case?

How shall your program run? You can use more events.
Can you explain what you try to to?

Hi jeyanthi,

in this case you can read the ini file, which exists beside the executable. At the first time you write your default path in. If your program run you can first read the pathes, then copy your file, and after that update the pathes in the ini file.
