How to display (or check) the string in a DIAdem channel?

[cb34]

How do you display (or check) the string data in a DIAdem channel? I would also like to export this string (actually its a filename) into Matlab. Please help me on this.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Similar like CHD(ChannelLine, ChannelName) for numeric channels you can use CHT(ChannelLine, ChannelName) for text channels to read or write Data/Text from or into a channel. Example:

Dim tMyText
' create a text channel
Call CHNALLOC("MyChannel",1024,1,DataTypeString,"Text",1,5)
tMyText = "New text"
' write content of tMyText into the first line
ChT(1, "MyChannel") = tMyText
' read first line and store it into tMyText
tMyText = ChT(1, "MyChannel")
' display tMyText
msgbox tMyText

I hope this will help

Greetings
