Writing DAQ to spreadsheet

I'm currently importing data from a USB-6009 DAQ to my GUI and I would like to write the data to a spreadsheet file approximately once per second along with some user input data from my GUI.  What is the easiest way to do this?  I've tried using "write to file.vi" but it samples the data too often and is overkill for what I'm tyring to do.

Any advice is greatly appreciated,

Thanks,

Jarrod

Write to File, Write LabVIEW Measurement File, Write Spreadsheet File, Export Waveforms to Spreadsheet File, all can be used. How often you write is not up to any of these but how often you call them. You have to add some code if you only want to write periodically. One way is to use the Elapsed Time function. You can wire the Boolean output to a case statement or wire it to the enable input of the Write LabVIEW Measurement File Express VI.
