Hello,

i wanna read the first line of a textfile. The textfile only contains one line wit an id like 00017H5.
How can i import these id in my Result?

Hi,

you can write a simple LV vi to read the text file. You can pass the file path to the LV vi which can read and gives the data out as string. You can save the data into any container which you use for your report creation.

Thanks

Hi, Also, you have a possibility to use the 'File System Object' without a source code.
The example is attached. Hope this helps you. Br,Sergei

Hi,

the FileObj is really a good thing. Now it works fine, and i put the read id with modifiReportHeader below my header.

Thanks Stefan Bölsterli
