extract the channel name from the attribute data from a waveform

[n3ow]

Good day

I am looking to extract the channel name from the attribute data from a waveform .

The data is generated using DaqMx create channel then passed to Analog 1D Wfm  read

I get the data but it seems to have a carriage return which placed it one line down and I cant find a wat to correct this so that I can sent the data to a array for the write measurement file.

So you already get the requested string, but you want to add the TrimWhitespace function to remove CR/LF chars?

How are those channels created? Why is there a CR/LF in the channel name?

You can define the datatype you want to get from GetWaveformAttribute so you don't need to handle variants at all:

Thank you that will clean things up as well.
