Change comma with dot in writing measurement file

[simo28]

Hello,

I'm using the write to measurement file vi for save some data. I don't manage to read the text file in Matlab, I guess is because the decimal separator is the comma.

Is there a simple way in LabVIEW for set the decimal separator to be the dot instead of the comma? (in the writing to measurement file vi)

now the data is like this 56,897 but I would like it in the format 56.897

Thanks

Hello simo,

does unchecking 'use localized decimal point' in Options-Front Panel help?

Yes! thank you so much tomstar

It has been working fine inside LabVIEW, but when I make the .exe application and start recording it register the text file with the comma separator again. So I guess it was just a temporary setting of LabVIEW.

Is there a way to have the dot separator also when I register the data file from the application .exe?

I don't find a way to set it in the "Write to measurement file"..

Regards

Sorry I found a solution of course.. I should have checked better before post this question.

Here it is: Decimal separator from comma to dot in .exe application
