how to save data without using file concept

[venky1]

hi

   i just want to know how to store and save data without using the file concept.The data is 16 bit and not an array.

Hi,
As far as i know, you can save data temporarily on your machine memory or on a storage device of any kind (hard drive, disk-on-key etc.).
If you would like to save your data on a storage device it have to be saved in a file or database of any kind. There is no other option.
You can store your data in a remote storage device as well, using a network.

In this point I'll have to ask: why don't you want to save your data in a file?
If you will answer that i can suggest what i think is best for you.

Amir.

well i am working on serial port communication where i had to provide the data information to pic microcontroller in that case i had to check that if same data is being sent by labview to microcontroller then microcontroller had to send an ack signal that stop sending the data.

that is why i need to store and save the data sent by labview and when microcontroller sends the data which it had received earliar,a comparison had to be set up and if same data is found then stop sending the data to microcontroller.

i hope u might have understood a bit.

You can add shift registers too. But i am still not clear as to why you cannot directly compare the data?

hi

  i will see about the shift register but how to compare the data directly

Hi venky1,

see the attached example.

The loop will stop if the last and the current value are equal.

Hope it helps.
