Is Read From Spreadsheet file VI a read only%3F

Solved!
Go to solution

I came across the Read From Spreadsheet File VI and wondering if that is a read only?  I am under the impression that it is not because in the Help menu the following is stated:

 

 The VI opens the file before reading from it and closes it afterwards. You can use this VI to read a spreadsheet file saved in text format. This VI calls the Spreadsheet String to Array function to convert the data.

 

I usually use Create/Replace and do a read only so I am wondering if this is read only or read/write when it opens up a file?

Digging into the VI, I see that it is using Read Only permission for opening and reading the file.
