writing data to a file using lab view

How to write data to a file without leaving any blank lines in the file? How to check if the cursor is placed in the corner of a notepad file using LAB VIEW?

What are you trying to log as there are a number of file formats that can be considered. Text isnt always the best

If you write data to a file, simply don't include any blank lines. We cannot give more specific advice unless you are telling us how you are writing. Are you writing to a new file or appending to an existing file. If the blank lines already exist, you need to read the entire file, remove the undesired lines from the string, and write the data back.

Notepad files don't have any "corners". Please describe what you are trying to do.

What is "LAB VIEW"?

When I write data to a text file it should get updated immediately below the data which has been entered already irrespective of position where the cursor is placed.I am creating a new file and writing data to it.

What else is the best file format?

that depends on how the file is created, have you opened it for append, or as a new file, Do you have a code snippet you can post so we can see what your trying to do. May give a quicker solution.

I might be wrong ...but do you need to append data at the end of file as given in this example?
