I started using a program called Tableau - the normal way I log data into a text file does not work will with Tableau. What I am trying to do is log data row by row.
Example of the old way:
Date Time Voltage Temp....etc. then new line below it with data.
Example of what I am trying to do
Date 12/6/18
Time 6:35 am
Voltage 120
etc...
Then repeats itself over and over again till the VI is stop. I am still new at LabVIEW and do not know all its features. I am close on what I am trying to do (see attachments). I can make a text file log in rows but it over writes the data every time it updates. How can I make this loop append the data every time it updates?

Open the file once before the loop and close it once after the loop. Then you can write as much as you want inside of the loop.

Might as well use Format Into File, one less node...
