high cpu load while using excel easy text

[Doran]

Hi all ,

I am using LV 8.5 with excel toolkit , it seem one of my sub vi's which creates report by excel causing to high cpu load on the pc,and sometimes to

PC Crash.

Monitoring it by the task manager indicates that the excel easy text cause this problem.

Do you have any suggestion how to decrease the cpu load?

Thanks

Hello Doran,

Have you tried monitoring the time it takes to execute the 'Excel Easy Text' functions in your VI? You could use the 'Get Date/Time in Seconds' function or 'Tick Counts' function to track this. Also, do you notice this taking a longer time as the VI keeps running? If so, it could be related to the size of your excel report. 

Do you have a wait function inserted in your loop? If not, I would definitely place this in order to reduce the CPU load.
