Try one of the convert functions from the "String/Number conversion" section of the "String" menu, e.g. "Decimal String to Number" which is placed in a loop.

The easiest way to convert a string array to a numeric array is to use a For Loop auto-indexed on the string array. Inside the loop use Fract/Exp String to Number (or one of the other conversion functions from the String >> String/Number Conversion function palette that match your expected number type). Add a numeric indicator array outside of the For Loop and let the loop create it by auto-indexing.
See the attached LabView 6.1 example.

No for loop is necessary. The function is polymorphic so you can wire the array directly to it.

Thanks Dennis! That's a neat trick. I've been using LabView for almost 10 years and I'm still learning.
