ring, attribute value

[Leszek56]

I want to substitute the Label strings of the Ring (Label/Value Pairs) after starting the program with strings read from the Excel Spreadsheet or some text file. I know how to implement this part but I don't know how to set Label using attribute command. I found  command to set the Label of the ring but I want to modify Labels of Label/Value pairs so the user can modify them depending on the devices names:

Value        Label

1               Device1

2               Device2

3               Device3

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

have a look at InsertListItem (), ReplaceListItem () and DeleteListItem ().

Good luck,

Wolfgang,

Thank you very much. It was pretty easy to implement, but it was not obvious for me to find the solution, because I was looking for atributes.

So I read the string from the Excel and I subsitute the default labels from Label/Value pair with the string read from Excel using "ReplaceListItem"

 error = ExcelRpt_GetCellValue  (rawDataWorkSheetHandle, "B2", ExRConst_dataString, &value_1);
  error = ExcelRpt_GetCellValue  (rawDataWorkSheetHandle, "B3", ExRConst_dataString, &value_2);  
  error = ExcelRpt_GetCellValue  (rawDataWorkSheetHandle, "B4", ExRConst_dataString, &value_3);  
  error = ExcelRpt_GetCellValue  (rawDataWorkSheetHandle, "B5", ExRConst_dataString, &value_4);  

  status = ReplaceListItem (AgilisInterfaceTabHandle, TAB_AGILIS_CHANNEL, 3, value_1, 0);    //Replace laser 1 name
  status = ReplaceListItem (AgilisInterfaceTabHandle, TAB_AGILIS_CHANNEL, 2, value_2, 1);    //Replace laser 2 name 
  status = ReplaceListItem (AgilisInterfaceTabHandle, TAB_AGILIS_CHANNEL, 1, value_3, 2);    //Replace laser 3 name  
  status = ReplaceListItem (AgilisInterfaceTabHandle, TAB_AGILIS_CHANNEL, 0, value_4, 3);  //Replace laser 4 ame

I am glad all went smoothly - a quantum of solace may be that e.g. tables, tabpanels etc. require even more search/experience: the more complex the control...
