Is there a way to create a button on the front panel that would automatically open the txt file data is being stored to?

I am saving data read from FieldPoint to a .txt file. Is there a way to create a button on the front panel so that when the user pushes this button it automatically opens the .txt folder in notepad? I want to bypass the user having to find the file in the computer in order to open it.

Hi jem,
I suggest that you break this up into three seperate questions and re-post to this list. That way you get more ideas from others that may have better insites than myself.
Re:the sysexec
The Sysexec will allow you to execute a dos command. This is the equivalent of going to
Start>>>Run
What you should do is find the proper DOS command sysntax that is required to open a text file in notepad or your favorite editor. Once you know what a good DOS command is, you should pass that string to the Sysexec.VI. The Sysexec has an input that allows you to choose if the code waits for the command to complete or if it should just start the program and let it run in the background. Sysexec will open its own window to run the command you speci
fiy.

  • Is there a way to create a button that links to a website?

    Is there a way to create a button that links to a website?
    I was reading up that it's possible to this with menus, and tracks but can you do it with a button and how?
    I am hoping to create a button that people viewing my discs on a computer can click on the link and their web browser will pop up and take them to a website.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    dvd@ccess questions are being asked once a week on this forum, so I'll repeat why it's useless:
    - Mac users have to enable the feature in the preferences of DVD Player in order to for the links to work.
    - PC users have to install a small application on their PC, and they have to reboot the PC in order for the links to work.
    - On top of this, it's still unreliable, and may not work on some computers.
    It's a dog: Don't use it.

  • Is there a way to create a button to make an entire page visible or hidden in an Acrobat XI form?

    Is there a way to create a button to make an entire page visible or hidden in an Acrobat XI form?

    Note that Reader (11 or otherwise) cannot show/hide pages that are templates. Reader 11 can spawn new pages from templates and delete any spawned pages, however. It also supports spawning a template by overlaying it on an existing page.
    The UI in Acrobat 11 for making a page a template and setting its visibility is found under: Tools > Document Processing > Page Templates
    Here are some links to the JavaScript documentation: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.1216.html
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_Dev_Templates.80.2.html
    Note that some of this information is outdated with respect to Reader 11.

  • Is there a way to create a playlist from the now playing screen on ios7?

    Is there a way to create a playlist from the now playing screen on ios7? I want to be able to hear a song in my collection and immediately add it to an existing playlist or create a new playlist.
    Thank you in advance

    Hi Cornellius,
    From the now playing screen there's a Create button at the bottom that allows you to create a
    Genius Playlist
    New Station form Artist
    New Station from Song
    IPhone Help, Browse and play
    http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph3cf21a82
    The Now Playing screen provides playback controls and shows you what’s playing.
    For information on Genius Playlists, see

    I don't see an option to add it to an existing playlist.

  • Is there a way to create a custom screensaver with pics/slides that display for different amounts of time?

    Is there a way to create a custom screensaver with pics/slides that display for different amounts of time? Or even add a "video slide" into the screensaver?
    My business has 3 TVs displayed in our lobby, each with its own apple TV and they are all linked to the same photo stream. Currently the Atv screensaver displays the photostream pictures of our products for the default 3 seconds. We just added pics/slides that now display messages and useful info for our customers but I want that info to be displayed for a longer period of time than the pictures to give people a chance to read it.
    I tried using flickr and powerpoint as a work around but no luck.  I created a slide in powerpoint with play length of 15 secs and saved it as a wmv file.  I added that file to a "screensaver" set in flickr and pointed the Atv screensaver to that flickr set.  It still displays everything, pics and the wmv file at the default 3 sec.
    I know I can increase the duration of all pics in the screensaver to display for longer but the goal is to have the pics display at 3 secs and the info slides to display at 15 secs.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No that's not possible.
    If you have any suggestions that you think might enhance the Apple TV you can send Apple your feedback here

    The one thing that I can't figure out how to do on an in-screen keyboard is the "tab" key.  When taking notes on my ipad and iphone, I like to indent to indicate new thoughts.  On an external keyboard, the key is available but is sorely missing on screen.  Is there a way to create a "tab"?

    The iPhoto for iOS seems to be aimed at working on photos then sharing them to social media sites or to iCloud for sharing there. iPhoto for iOS does not perform many of the organizing tasks that iPhoto on your Mac does. Many people expected that there would be more capabilities in iPhoto for iOS that would allow it to work more closely with iPhoto on your computer but this is not the case. They are separate apps.

  • Is there a way to create new events on the new iPhoto app?

    Is there a way to create new events on the new iPhoto app?  I seem to only be able to create albums.  I would really like the app to allow me to do all the same things that I was able to do on my Mac.  I would create events and then sync to all devices.  Can someone please instruct me on how to create new events from the photos imported from the photo stream.
    Thanks for all the help!

    - Problem: I have 1400 e-mails with attachments that need to be converted into pdf and the attachments cannot be embeded.
    System: PC Windows 7 using Acrobat X Prof. - Thank you!

    Hi ,
    There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
    However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
    I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
    Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

  • I've lost my photos (crashed hdd, iPhoto library on Time Machine corrupt too).  Is there a way to create a picture from the thumbnail that remains in iPhoto?  The quality is obviously poor, but better than nothing.

    I've lost my photos (crashed hdd, iPhoto library on Time Machine corrupt too).  Is there a way to create a picture from the thumbnail that remains in iPhoto?  The quality is obviously poor, but better than nothing.

    Time machine should have a good copy - how are you determining that it is corrupt
    If you want the thumbnails as photos right click on the iPhoto library and make a copy of the data folder and then import it into a new iPhoto library - it contains your thumbnails

    Yup there sure is.

  • Is there a way to create a button that works the same as the ImageField?

    I am trying to create a button that acts like the ImageField tool. I want to be able to click on the button and it will direct me to browse for my photo that I want to attach.
    I am using LiveCycle. (I am a nooby and have limited skills when it comes to script)
    The ImageField function is to complex of a function for the use on my IPAD (PDF Expert APP). I can create a photo button using Adobe Form Creater and it works fine with the below script:
    event.target.buttonImportIcon ();
    This is a mouseup Action Event.
    My form that has been created in LiveCycle works perfectly on my IPad, except the photos. If I can simplify the function of the photos to act more like the Adobe Form Creater tool, then perhaps it will all work together.
    Any ideas, or is this just a waste of time? I have created the form over using Adobe Form Creater, but it has some limitations that make it not function as nice as LiveCycle's form.
    Thanks

    Not in Acrobat unless your image is already in the PDF format.
    This is a feature of forms created with LiveCycle Designer.
