send data to a file and print it~~

[Crystal]

I am getting datas from a device, they are backreflection and
insertion loss of optical fibre.
and i would like to make the VI that can output datas to a file(which
is in word or excel) so that i can collect all data and print it out
at the end?
can i create a VI to do them all??

thanks...~~

Hi Crystal,

yes you can use Excel activeX library to create a worksheet, fill it with your data, save and print it.
In LV you can find an example:
\examples\comm\ExcelExamples.llb\Write Table to Excel.vi; this could be a good starting point.
Eventually, you can consider purchasing tha LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit; you can create nice reports with little effort.

Good luck,

Alberto
