LabVIEW runs out of memory when I'm writing to a spreadsheet file

[smercurio_fc]

Glad that helped. I started out in text based programming (and still do some), so I know that it takes a bit of time to get used to graphical programming.

One thing I wanted to add is that the example VI I wrote was based on not knowing the number of records in the file file. If you know the number of records then you can use a for-loop which runs based on N = # of total records / # of records to read. If the division does not provide a whole number then you would run the loop for an extra iteration to pick up the remaining records.

smercurio_fc,

That's fine that it doesn't know how many records it reads. In general, the files will be 3600 records long, however, depending on the experiment we're working on, it may be less, and those files will need to be converted anyway too -- so I'd rather have the flexibility of not limiting the for-loop by a specific number.

Thanks,
