Problem with Exporting Data to Excel

[Wang]

Hi Everyone,

I have problem with exporting the data to a excel file. I am using a XP
system in German which uses comma "," as the decimal point , and I also set
"Use localized decimal point*" under the FronPanel Options to be true. But
the exported excel file can not recognize (or just ignore) the comma for a
whole column (flow rate), for examle "1,234" (1.234 in non-german system)
would be 1234. But if I open its text file where the data came
from by calling Excel directly, there will be no problem. Is this a bug of
LabVIEW, or I forget some settings?

Thanks a lot!

Le

P.S: The LabVIEW version is 8.2.1 and the Office version is Office2007.

Hi Le,

Sound familiar; here in The Netherlands we have the same problem.   That is why we use the English versions for XP and Office.

I don’t quite understand how you interface to Excel. Directly with ActiveX or through a CSV file.

Can you explain a bit more ?
