Transfer time stamp from text file into MS Access thru Labview

Hello everyone,
I am Cruz; Long time listener, First time caller.
I am currently monotoring data being collected by an oven. The data is stored in a text file. I am using Labview to take the data from the textfile and place it in an MS access DB for manipulation. The first three columns of the text file are the time stamp of data. When i transfer the data into Access i cant get the first three columns to display as a time stamp. Can have some pointers on what how to get the first three columns to display correctly.
Additional info:
the text file is a 1D array that gets overitten with every new mesurement tanken. the transfer to Acces is to not loos any of the information and to better manipulate the data into forms and such.
Running Labview 2010
attached is code and text file.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Your first mistake is reading the file as DBL. Your first three columns are obviously not numeric values. Did you ever look at the output array? Read it as strings. Second, you would need to combine those first three columns to create an actual time stamp before you write to the db. Unless of course you have one column for date, one column for time, and one column for AM/PM. I would not recomend that type of structure in the db.

    Hello
    It seems you are reaching the .NET memory limitation informed in note 1040454.
    Because 3.5 does not use .NET it can work that.

    And I'm telling you that this is a bad option. You would use the vaccum cleaner to wash the dishes, would you?
    If you for some reason would do this task in SQL Server, you would implement it as a CLR stored procedure, but from what you have said I don't understand why you would do this server-side at all.
    What's wrong with the current C# solution?

    Got it.  I was just looking for the available options, nothing wrong with my C# solution. And yes, I don't use vacuum cleaner to wash dishes.

  • Plotting Time Stamp from Txt file in Column to another column

    I want to know how to plot 2 columns that i am reading from a text file.
    column 1 has a time stamp in HH:MMS,  and column 5 has data in which i want to plot the time verus the data.

    The Scan from String function will do most of those conversions in a single step.  Here are a couple of examples.  You will still need to read the array of strings in and process in a loop.

    Hi,
    Have you seen these two articles?
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/68806B93A21​355E98625726F0064822B
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/5D42CCB17A7​0A06686256DBA007C5EEA
    Basically, it can be done, but be aware it may not be as accurate as you would like.  Follow the code in the first article and note that the easiest way would be to just use the basic File I/O VIs to write to text file, since the Write to Measurement File VI will only work with waveforms and you have counter output.

  • How to get current month from filename and bulk insert from text file into table?

    I set up some dynamic SQL to help my bulk copy data from a text file to a table.  This works fine for files that come in every day; I get the previous day’s data, based on the file name that’s placed
    in the folder.  That’s why I’m using the ‘-1’.  The dates will look like this: '20140131', so I'm using type 112.
    declare @fullpath1 varchar(1000)
    select @fullpath1 = '''\\system.local\ms\london\FTP\' + convert(varchar, getdate()-1, 112) + '_INDEXPRICES_EOM.SPC'''
    declare @cmd1 nvarchar(1000)
    print (@cmd1)
    select @cmd1 = 'bulk insert [dbo].[SB_Monthly] from ' + @fullpath1 + ' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = ''\t'', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR=''0x0a'')'
    print(@cmd1)
    exec (@cmd1)
    I think the syntax will be somewhat similar to this:
    YEAR(date_column)=YEAR(getdate()) AND MONTH(date_column)=MONTH(getdate())
    I’m not totally sure how to incorporate that into my current syntax.
    Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

    I tried a couple versions of this.
    Declare @StartDate Date, @EndDate Date
    Select @StartDate = convert(varchar, getdate()-28, 112), @EndDate = convert(varchar, getdate()-1, 112)
    BEGIN
    declare @fullpath1 varchar(1000)
    select @fullpath1 = '''\\ms\london\FTP\' + ''' between ''' + Convert(Varchar(10), @StartDate, 101) + ''' and ''' + Convert(Varchar(10), @EndDate, 101) + '''_SP.SPC'''
    declare @cmd1 nvarchar(1000)
    print (@cmd1)
    select @cmd1 = 'bulk insert [dbo].[SPBMI_Monthly] from ' + @fullpath1 + ' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = ''\t'', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR=''0x0a'')'
    print(@cmd1)
    exec (@cmd1)
    END
    Here’s the string:
    bulk insert [dbo].[SPBMI_Monthly] from '\\ms\london\FTP\' between '02/03/2014' and '03/02/2014'_SP.SPC' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = '\t', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR='0x0a')
    The error message I keep getting is:
    Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
    Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'between'.
    Msg 319, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
    Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table expression, an xmlnamespaces clause or a change tracking context clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.
    I feel like I’m already pushing this thing to the limit. 
    Maybe this last part isn’t possible.

  • Trying to load a javascript link from text file into a dynamic textfile

    Can anyone help me with this problem? Im trying to load in a
    newsfeed from freshcontent.net into my text field. If i put this
    javascript link on an html page, the page shows correctly, which is
    im supposed to get 3 dynamic links with news content headlines.
    Please view the link to see what i mean:
    http://www.freshcontent.net/directory/real-estate/real_estate.html
    Now, i cannot get this same type of display behavior in my
    text field if i just paste into my text file the javascript link
    thats supposed to bring up the 3 headlines. It is my understanding,
    that flash cannot do this without some sort of specific
    actionscripting, that involves asfusion, and/or externalInterface.
    Im not sure exactly how to go about setting this up to make this
    work. My current code looks like this:
    If anybody could tell me where im going wrong and what i
    should change in order to get the desired result im going for, Id
    very much appreciate it. Thanks

    well sorry there fanmap - but I don't think you're going to
    be able to get this to work. here's why: the link points to a php
    file - which gathers dynamic info from a DB - the return from the
    php is generating a string that is based on the DOM and
    'constructs' a javascript method that in turn writes to the html
    document. although we can embed html into a textField in Flash
    there are a limited number of supported html tags - and JS methods
    will not operate internally. in addition, (i'm not certain someone
    correct this if i'm off) there's no way to 'change' the output of
    the php call, therefore you will not be able to read the return
    because it is designed to use the DOM and write solely to the
    current document. Even if you were to access the JS method from the
    swf file (which one can) it will still only write the content of
    the php return to the html document - and the output is not
    compatible with the textField class.

       We are loading flat file data into a cube/dso. The flat file contains time stamp field.
    All the data are getting loaded properly except time stamp.
    The field is taking system date and time of data loading.
      I have taken the customized info-object like 0TCTTIMSTMP.
    Kingly guide me, where I am going wrong.
    Thanks,

    Hi Experts,
          I am trying to load the flat file, the input format is attached below.
    Creation Date
    20,150,411,121,600
    20,150,406,032,600

    20150424102709.  
       This means it is taking today's Date..

  • , Trouble importing from text file into PDF Acrobat 9.0

    Hey all!
    I'm trying to use the JavaScript found on this Adobe page to insert text into my PDF:
    http://help.adobe.com/livedocs/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/h tml/wwhelp.htm?context=Acrobat9_HTMLHelp&file=JS_API_AcroJS.88.502.html
    this.importTextData("/c/data/myData.txt", 0);
    Replacing the path with my own path, of course.  However, I can't get it to work at all, it just crashes my JavaScript.  I was thinking it might have something to do with the privilege stuff which, admittedly, confuses me a bit.  But my understanding is that if you use the function without arguments, that shouldn't matter, and it will prompt the user for a path?
    this.importTextData();
    However, that still crashes the JavaScript.  I'm not sure what exactly I am doing wrong here?
    NOTE: I have tried running the JavaScript both in a checkbox and on page load.

    Well I was having trouble getting it to work without a path, though that kind of mysteriously started working now despite the fact that I didn't really change anything.  I also assumed that part didn't apply to me because we are on 9, not 8, but maybe it means 8 and on?
    I'm having a bit of trouble wrapping my mind around privileged and non-privileged contexts.
    These methods can be executed only in a privileged context, which includes console, batch and application initialization events.
    What would be the simplest way to execute in a privileged context?  "Application initialization" sounds promising, does this mean when the application is first opened?  If so, how would you execute JavaScript this way?!

  • How to do import data from the text file into the mathscript window?

    Could anyone tell me how to do import data from text file into mathscript window for labview 8?
    MathScript Window openned, File, Load Data - it has options: custom pattern (*.mlv) or all files. 
    Thanks

    Hi Milan,
    Prior to loading data in Mathscript Window , you have to save the data from the Mathscript window (the default extension of the file is .mlv but you can choose any extension). This means that you cannot load data from a text file  that was not created using the Mathscript window.
    Please let me know if you have any further questions regarding this issue.

  • USING WEBUTIL TO READ TEXT FILE INTO TABLE HANGS AFTER CERTAIN NUMBER OF RE

    Dear
    when we use webutil to retrieve data from text file into database table
    (using text_io) it hangs after certain number of records ( approx. 1300
    records) while the total number of records to be inserted in the table exceeds
    12000 records while it works properly on forms6i with the normal text_io any
    help please...?
    thanks and regards

    WebUtil uploads the files as Binary - so yes you could have some issues if you have a Unix host - however, that would only mean that there is an extra character to trim off of the end of the line read by Text_io.
