actual aquisition time output

[Cramer]

    I am wondering if there is a way to get the actual time step for each piece of data aquired, making the starting of the program time =0, and then each time data is saved to a file the amount of time elapsed from the starting of the program to the actual time the data was aquired, can be saved with that piece of data.  accompanied with that I would also like to save the number of data being recorded with each piece. I am using Labview 7


exp
    data         time(seconds)
1   #####   ######
2   #####   ######
3   #####   ######
.
..
....


or something like that,
thanks

Cramer-

This sounds like a simple manipulation of timestamps. You can just take a timestamp when your program launches and also then you write to the file and do a simple subtraction to find the time difference.
