read bmp -> modify -> write bmp

[Y3G]

Hi,

I would like to read from a spreadsheet file a path to a *.bmp file, then combine a Comment (String-value) to that *.bmp file and save it.

What's the best way doing it with LabView 7.1?

Thanks

Hi Y3G,

use the "read from spreadsheet file.vi" to read your data and combine your strings with the "format into string" function.

Are you referring to embedding a comment in the actual bitmap file? If so, as far as I know, a bitmap file does not support comments embedded within the file.

Are you adding the comment to the filename?  I think you could use the Move function under the Advanced File I/O palette to do a rename.  There may even be openG VI's that do this as well.
