Format txt file

[PReitano]

How can I output the following text file,

Data
Size 1000
0
90
.
.
121

where Data and Size 1000 are string values and the data underneath are dbl.  The data underneath must be in a single column.

Use this code to convert it all to string format then save it to file.

Thanks for your help.  However when I save the file using File I/O > Write File.vi, I get squares in my text file.

Hello,

I'm guessing you're on a non-Windows machine.  In the example code given by the previous poster, replace the Carriage Return Constants on his diagram (there are two of them) with End of Line Constants (also available on the String palette).  Now your text file should look normal.  The difference between these items is that a Carriage Return is the platform specific character denoting the end of a line on Windows, but it may not be on other platforms.  In order to get an end of line character that is specific to the platform you are on, you need to use the End of Line Constant.

Hope this helps,
