How to add new data to existing data in excel file?

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi, 

 

I would like to save the data (Name, Age, BPM) which are manually keyed in during each run to excel. My data gets saved after the first run, however it would all get erased and only new data remains in the subsequent run. Please tell me what to do, I have attached my VI inside.

You really write simple text (csv) file, not excel. when you write header, "append to file" terminal unused and system creates new file. You can check file for existing. If file exists, you can append date, another case create file and header before

I'd use Check if File or Folder exist instead of Get File Info.
