concatenate files

[indm3]

My test creates tables as it progresses - which can be saved in Word / Excel. I generate a summary at the end of the test based on the results from the individual tables. The problem is that the summary should be at the beginning of the report (word document) followed by individual tables.

I tried using Append File to report but its reading binary format from both Word and Excel documents. Is there a way to achieve what I am trying to do.

Hi indm3,

can i know how ur generating report

[indm3]

I am using ReportGeneration Toolkit. First I use New Report.vi and generate report out of format word or excel. Then, I collect an array of strings during my test and append them in the form of a table to the report. I need these tables to generate a summary which I want to be at the beginning of this report.

Two ways that I can think of off the top of my head:

Using ActiveX controls to paste the summary at the header of your document.

Reading from your created spreadsheet. Making a NEW spreadsheet, write the summary header first, then write your data from the file you just read from, delete original file.
