Hi asif,

you save a timestamp value to your file and you get a (numeric) timestamp value in Excel - what's wrong with this?

Btw. it most often is easier not to use ExpressVIs…

i want to save string from string control.

when i write any string, it should save in file with date and time.

Hi asif,

use WriteDelimitedFile instead of those ExpressVIs to gain full control over file formatting…
