Access to a channel value from a MF4 file

[Xavrocg]

Hello,

I'm working with DIAdem 2017.

I load a mf4 datafile in the portal with a drag and drop method. The data plugin I used is the one from the website 1.3.0.7307.

When the channel appears in the Data portal it has a yellow A? what does this letter mean?

When I try to read the first value of the channel A with the both following syntax:

- Msgbox Data.Root.ChannelGroups(1).Channels("ChannelA").Values(1)
- Msgbox Data.GetChannel("Group_1/ChannelA").Values(1),

the msgbox is empty in both cases.

I do not understand with this syntax is not working because I used to use it for mdf3 file without any issue.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Xavier

Hey Xavrocg, 

I tried with Test1.MF4 (in the .zip attached) and used 

Dim oMyChn
Set oMyChn = Data.GetChannel("[1]/[2]")
Call MsgBoxDisp (oMyChn.Values(1))

For this I get the correct output in my message box.

Are you able to provide a file to test with? Or try with the Test1.Mf4 or the above code to see if you can get this working?

Let us know how you get on, 

Rebecca
