How to not lose data from serial port and put it to excel

[Ferray]

Hi

I am new in labview, i am doing a project that receive data from the serial port a 115200 Bauds, and when i try to save it on excel ALWAYS, i don't get the all the data, i lose a lot of it. i mean i want to save it when it is arrived at the port.

How i can get it without losing it, i just want to save it.

You haven't given a lot of information to work with. How are you doing the save? What function are you using? Are you losing entire packets that are being received or part of each one? Can you post the VI or at least an image of it? If you post the VI, do a save with options and choose development distribution so any subVIs you have are included.

maybe you loose the data while opening excel.

It is easier to write the data to a tab delimited text file. If you name that file ....csv you can open it in excel and you don't loose the time to communicate with excel.
