How can I write data in a Database?

We are trying to develope a .VI which should send data to a database
directly. Please if someone has done it tell us which DB is better and
easier to use. We would prefer to use Access or something similar.

Thanks.

Hi

SQL is a common database language and NI sell a SQL tool kit for LV.
Another option is to use ActiveX to control Microsoft Access database.

If you want to use access, one way of "sending" data to access is
through a txt file. Last month i had to make a vi that sent data to
access, and what i did was to write the information i wanted in a txt
file, and then in labview i executed a macro in access that grabbed the
data from the txt file and put it in the tables.
if you need more information about it, e mail me :
