Hi all,
As stated in the subject, is it possible to append more than 1 table to a word report?
Very simply I have test data feeding into an array and being appended to my report with the append table to report vi.
I have the same thing again sending data to a different array which I would also like to insert into my report in table form. I placed a second append table to report vi directly after the previous vi but it doesn't work.
... Am I being stupid? or is this function only meant to be used once? maybe i need another vi after the append table vi before being allowed to add another?
Feel free to enlighten me as I am confused,
thanks!

Please post a snippet of your code so we can see how you are doing this.

And if you don't know how to make a LabVIEW Snippet, just attach the VI that creates the report with the two tables ...

Sorry, I thought this might have had a simple answer, attached is a sample vi. I haven't attached the actual vi because the procedure is massive and is not necessary to test this issue so i threw together a very simple version of the report generation. The sample vi does exactly the same thing in terms of creating a word report, appending a table, then another, then closing the report but without the clutter.
Please run the vi I've attached see if you get 2 tables in your report or 1 (i only get 1). Also i have no doubt im missing somthing in order to make this work.
Feel free to make suggestions! Thanks a lot

Well, changing the column width fixed the issue - I now get two tables appended seperatley as desired.
For some reason I am now getting an error when trying to save the report.. but i think its a different issue to be resolved.
Thanks for your help.. Apologies for my stupidity
