data format

[Tuong]

Dear all!

I want to calculate data by the simple way, but I have a problem with the data when reading from spreadsheet file. For example, I have the data 4.5269, but it only display for 4. I already adjust in properties: Format and precision for "Floating point, double precision", so it can not reconize.

I attached the file, wish for your help!

Works just fine here without any modification. Are you in Europe? Could it be that your decimal point setting is set to comma?

Go to "tools...options...front panel" and uncheck "use localized decimal point". See if this help. 🙂

Hi!

Thank you for your answer, but in my computer, e.g. four and a half, I can type 4.5, in U.S standard in Word, Excel,... This mean that my decimal setting point is dot "."

But in Labview, it can not reconize ".", it just accept 4,5 when I typed. As you see, file Chunchare.txt have data that display by "x.x", but it is run in my program, mean results are displayed by "x,x". So, I don't know how this is from Labview or from anything else. Could you help me? I use Labview 7.1

Thanks.

Did you try the labview option setting I mentioned?
