excel headers

[RTSLVU]

I simply write my headers and any other information to the file before I enter my acquisition loop.

Hi scho,

Which vi are you talking about?

I have already posted image of vi which calls template.

Sorry gak,

 I am working on labview 7 express and using a fieldpoint device to get signals.

I am using the express vi. write file to spreadsheet at the moment and I was wondering How I could go about:

1) Adding headers to each of the columns

2) Have a separate section with a timestamp on it.

I know that I can't do alot of things using this express vi. so I was wondering how I can go about doing this using sub vi's.

Could you please attach image files instead of the actual Vi's because version 7 doesnt open up anything higher than 7.

Kind regards,

Hi scho,

I will reply to your original post.

Otherwise you will get few solutios here and few there...

So it will be easy for you to refer single post.

Here is a vi I use all the time.

Simply feed it a single dimension array containing the measurements for each line in the Excel file, if you don't wire the time stamp input it add it's own.

BTW: Unless you are trying to do something fancy an "Excel file" can be as simple as a text file with commas as the delimiter (.csv) or tabs (default .xls)
