I'm trying to create a file inside a subdirectory inside a working directory. So far, I'm able to create a sub inside the working but can't create a file inside the subdirectory. I'm currently experimenting w/makepath and I keep getting an error telling me the pathname has to be 260 elements. It's probably something simple but it eludes me. Thanks
The maximum path length on Windows is actually 260 characters. The error you are getting means that your path has more than 260 characters. Please find the attached VI that creates a text file inside of a newly created subdirectory. The VIs was created in LabVIEW 6.0.2. I hope this works for you. Have a great day.
Sir, Do you mean CVI as the programming language? This was posted to the LabVIEW forum, but I see there is a e-mail in the CVI support box as well that look very similar.
