Edit FileGlobals form C# code

[Areeg]

Hello, I'm trying to use this command:

 ExecutuionRunSates.SequenceFile.FileGlobalsDefaultValues.SetValString("Name");

to Set FileGlobals using C# code in Visual Studio,but I keep getting this error :

NationalInsturments.TestStand.Interop.API.ExecutionRunSates' does not contain a definition for 

'SequenceFile'

Thanks

ExecutionRunStates is an enum.  It only contains 3 items:

Of course it wouldn't contain a sequence file.

Are you trying to set the fileglobals of an executing sequence file or of a sequence file that is opened but not executing?  There are different ways to accomplish either.

Hi Areeg,

You access file global variables using RunState.SequenceFile.Data.FileGlobalDefaults.myVariable. You will insert the name of your variable in place of "myVariable". You can then set this variable equal to your desired value.
