writing to file

[Rayzab]

I am a little stuck on a problem. I have a VI that writes to a file when I hit the run button. I want to hit the run button again and I want this to create a duplicate of the file. Instead I get a error.

Look in the File I/O->Advanced File Functions palette.  There is a Create File With Incrementing Suffix.vi in there that should do what you want.

This worked. THANKS SO MUCH!
