I'm beginning to understand why Bob Schor lost his temper a little bit.
ceilingwalker, if you're stumbling your way through this you need to learn some more LabVIEW basics. When you have a broken run arrow, you click the arrow and it tells you what's wrong. Plus, just telling us that you have a broken run arrow doesn't tell us at all why it's broken. You should look in to Core 1 and Core 2 training. I personally used the SixClear videos to learn the basics.
AND, like I said above, you will need to convert your data to a string in order to write the timestamps and the data at the same time to the spreadsheet. I assume this is your problem.

Here is what I mean: the moment I press "start" button, it starts a loop that reads capacitance, Dissipation Factor, and an analog input of voltage, triggered every 3-seconds. It puts all three values on the spreadsheet exactly how I want it. What I want it to do is, each time those three variables are put in their own column, on the final column I would like the real time those samples were taken put in the last column.

Yes, I've understood what you mean for a bit now and I've been telling you what to use, even linking to VIs.
Here is a step-by-step list of what you need to do to get your data to be in the same format as your timestamp:

Cheers, James. I didn't "lose my temper", but I did "lose my patience". Have you noticed how readily our requests to "Show your code" are ignored? I do look, now and then, to see "what's next" in the "do my work for me" requests, but I'm (sadly) resigned to "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him (or her) drink".
