Format into string problem

Sorry for asking a similar question I asked before, but I really have a problem with a string format. Even though I have already taken a look at the string format table, I still don't really understand.

 

In my attachment, I want my header to be in the format like this

 

Date/time              Flow unit             Pressure unit
23.3.2012/23:19     [flow unit]            [pressure unit]

 

time  flow1  flow2  flow3  pressure1  pressure2  pressure3

                                 :

                                 :

 

It said there are too few format and contained unwired or bad terminal

 

Which symbol should I put in this case to make my header look like what I want?

 

Thanks

So instead of continue in the tread you already have, you made a new one. Not the best to do. 

 

But I'll try to give you a hint:

So you are trying to insert 4 values, but you only specify 2 places to insert values ( the two %s ).

Where should LabVIEW insert the last two values ?
And do you want the enum numbers or the strings ?

You need to tell LabVIEW what it has to do with ALL the values.

 

Next your broken wire:

What do you what to use for selecting a case ?

The broken wire is for plotting. I haven't finished that part yet. So should i put 4 %s to make it work?

You still didn't answer the question.
Do you what the value (number ) or the string (text) of the enum ?

As what you have wired now, you can the text with a %s or the number with a %d.

Try it out.
