How make programme for multiple file

[Julian_prince]

I have programme for analysis of a one data file, now i want to make the programme if there are 100 no of file so that programme will work on that file one by one,,

is it possible?

Post your code what you have done so far. So, some one will help you.

To do it, you will have to use a "list folder" VI present in advaced file functions of function pallete. This VI will list all the files and folder present in a specified location in two different arrays ( one array has list of all file and the other one has list of all folders). Once you get all the files, you can analyze those files one by one in a for loop.

As PCSNF stated in an earlier post, you will need to wrap your code in a loop to repeat the parsing process for all the files.

Also it is good practice to use the Buld Path function from the File palette rather than maniplating strings to get your path.  Did you want the path to be "parsed.txtPrased.txt.txt" ?  That is what your code generates. Put an indicator on it and look.

Overall, your code can probably be simplfied, but here's a quick draft that lets you select a folder and process all *.txt files in it.

I also thing you could just write the "resulst string" directly to a plain text file. coverting to an array for a nanosecond just to convert it back to what it was inside "write to spreadsheet file" seems a little detour, unless you really want to see the 2D array during execution. I would also delete all indicators, they change very rapidly and just slow down the loop.

(I did not test the code, so there could be bugs. Modify as needed)

(btw, never operate on paths as strings. it will break OS independence. Always use strip path/build path)
