How to change the format of the txt report file ?

The default output for the reportgen_txt.seq is a list in which each result is in a new line. Is there a setting to tell TestStand that the results in the txt-file should be a table ? Or do i have to change the reportgen_txt.seq manually (this seems to be extensive) ?

I want to have the result of the steps in a way like this like this:

seq_name, step_name, result, result_data, limits

Thanks for help.

Hi Simthorn,

They is no esay option. You have to modify the reportgen_txt.seq sequences yourself.
If its a small change or you are adding something, you can usually do this by make use of one of the Override callbacks.

But what you are want to do is quite major.

Start by copying the sequence file from the NI folder to the User folder.

Most of the work is done by this sequencefile is done in one sequence called 'PutOneResultInReport'. As the name implies it puts one set of results into the body of the variable holding the body report. It's this sequence you will need to restructure.

Hope this helps to get you started
