Export waveform to spreadsheet file

[Philipp Kravanja]

Hi i want to write waveforms to a spreadsheet file using the the export waveform to spreadsheet file.vi just as shown in the picture (vi). The reslulting spreasheetfile looks like the other pic ( spreadsheetfile). I dont want to have that line with time Y[0] etc.  over and over but only once at the very top. can you tell me how to modify the vi to get the desired results. Thanks a lot !
Another thing, but less important is to convert the time to seconds starting at 0.

Thanks for any help

Oh no.

Hmmm... That's very odd, especially since you have the "header?" input set to False. I tried it with the example Export Waveforms to Spreadsheet File that ships with LabVIEW, and wiring a False constant to that input. With that, no headers appeared.

What version of LabVIEW do you have?

Thanks for your quick answer. I am using  6.1.

Ah... That might be the problem. I would suggest opening up the Export Waveforms to Spreadsheet File VI. You can take a look at the code to see if it's actually skipping the writing out of the headers for the channel names. In the 8.2 version it is doing this in a loop:

I could fix the problem by changing the vi ! But its different to newer LabVIEW versions. Header was off, so if you turn header on it looks like in spreadsheet.jpg
I changed the vi from before.jpg to after.jpg and it works !
Thanks a lot for your help !

how do i rate a message ? i cant do it the way its described in the help

Note that you should not resave the VI to the standard directory. If you ever have to reinstall LabVIEW you'll just get back the original, non-working, version. Instead, you should resave it to your source code directory and modify the copy, so that the one that ships with LabVIEW isn't touched.

P.S. You cannot rate messages until you've posted 50 messages.
