indexing values into from 1 table to another

[labnoob]

Hi,

I have created a very basic Vi to aid my issue.

I want a user to enter values of volume in table 1. And in table two i would like them to appear where it says PVT Point 1, PVT Point 2 etc. i cant get my head around how you would go about indexing the values into table two. All other data in table 2 i would like to be static, thus should always be there.

I would also like to be able to Export the entire table as an excel spread sheet once the user is finished. As i said its a very basic example, but someone’s solution should be able to kick start something in my brain for me to develop it further.

Many thanks

My version of LabVIEW is too early to open your vi, however you can treat the table as if it was an array.

In the attached vi I just pull out a selected value and write it to another table - if I understand your post correctly, this is what you are trying to do.

Writing to an excel file can be done using ActiveX but can be a bit of a pain. Writing to a .csv file is far easier and will still open in excel. The write to spreadsheet function is great for this. When the attached vi asks for a filename just make sure you save it as a *.csv file.

You get the idea - just modify to suit your particular requirements.

Hope that helps

Ian

To export to Excel, simply right click and look at the 'Export' options.

To add to _Ian_ example you could use "Array Subset" function to pull out a block of data and then paste whole block using "Replace Array Subset" pointed to the upper left conner of the block instead of doing it one cell at a time.
