I am a new user of LabVIEW.please help me. I want to export the data to an excel spread sheet from a waveform chart (FPGA Target). suggest me a solution.
Also give me a suggestion for sampling in FPGA target.

Hi,
Which FPGA Target you are using? FlexRIO or CompactRIO?
There is a few ways to transfer data from FPGA to computer, you can refer to the following topic for more detail information:

Once you choose the method of communications, you need to save your data into an excel spreadsheet.
Do you need to generate a graph automatically in the excel? If yes you might need a report generation toolkit for this.
Else, you can use the "write to spreadsheet.vi" to log your data.
I found a great example in the community, you can refer to the link below:

I am using NI PXI 7842R Multifunction RIO with Virtex-5 LX50 FPGA

Hi,
How fast you would like to acquire the data from FPGA to host?

the data should get updated along with the chart
if its not possible, anything in minutes willd o
please give me the solution.

You have to know your requirement, are you looking for lossless acquisition for the maximum sampling rate? or a slower sampling rate at Hz?
If you are looking for latest data acquire by FPGA, you can use programmatically front panel communication.
