Write DAQ data into a .txt or .csv file

[chotan]

Hi,

I want to write the DAQ data inot a .csv or .txt file, so I'm trying to use "Write To Spreadsheet File", cause I can save data in any formats. My concept is that the DAQ data will save in a same file continuously when I'll press the ON button and when I'll press OFF button then it'll ask to the user to save the file.

I have attached the VI file.

But my problem is that every time it's asking me a new file even though I have put the append file as true.

Any suggestions.

Thanks,

Chotan

Hi Chotan,

the first you should do is to read the context help for the functions in use!

Here you would read this:

---

file path is the path name of the file. If file path is empty (default) or is <Not A Path>, the VI displays a dialog box from which you can select a file. Error 43 occurs if you cancel the dialog box.

---

So what will be the solution to prevent opening the file dialog with every call of WritetoSpreadsheet?
