Automatically nameing and saving files in LabView??

I am using LabView to generate simple data files using FOR loop. Everytime for loop is excuted once it ask for the filename where I want to save data. Instead I want to program so that LabView name save all the files automatically in a specified format after excuting once. How can I do it programatically in LabView so that it does not prompt for the filename each time the FOR loop is executed

I supposed that you did not wire the "file path"
Here's one of many ways of writing to a file.

  • How do I find out the exact path of each and every file that LabVIEW finds and loads into memory for a given top level vi?

    How do I find out the exact path of each and every file that LabVIEW finds and loads into memory for a given top level vi? There is probably a trivial, easy way to get this info, but I have not yet found it!  Thanks..

    Or if you want to grab all the paths programatically, try the attached VI.
    Open the top level that you want all the paths from and close all others, then open the
    attached and run it. It will return an array of all the VIs that the VI
    in question uses, including vi.lib VIs. You can filter these as well if
    you like.

    Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

  • Automatically Renaming and Sorting Files

    When I first installed iTunes, I remember it asking me something about automatically sorting and finding file information for the existing music on my computer (Windows Based). I didn't want to do that at the time, but I would like to if that is indeed what it does. Do you know what I'm talking about? Help please!
    Thanks,
    Chris

    The feature won't find info about the files, but it will reorganize them on the hard drive.
    It's an irreversible procedure, and can be found in edit\prefs\advanced\keep iTunes music folder organized.

  • Problem occurring when opening and saving files in AI SC5 with Windows 7

    Hi, I ‘am a Graphic Designer and first time working in UAE Windows 7 is basically the only OS here. My PC is:
    HP Elite 7000
    Intel® Core™ i5 CPU 2.67GHz
    4GB RAM
    32-bit
    Now to the problem, not that knowledgeable in IT stuff so here goes:
    1. Problem occurring when opening and saving files in AI SC5 with Windows 7. (You will actually see a “Not Responding” word coming out while opening and saving files, whether small or large files)
    2. Locked layers occasionally are moved accidentally.(Working on multiple layers is normal so we need to lock it specially the once on top. But there are times I still manage to select locked layers)
    3. After typing and locking the text, pressing “V” for the arrow key shortcut is still added to the text that is locked. (After typing I lock the text layer with my mouse and Press “V” to activate the arrow key… yes the arrow key is activated but the text is still typing the actual keyboard pressed)
    I’ve only use the brand new PC and installer for a month now. Not sure if this is compatibility issues or something else I’m not aware of.
    Thanks in advance to people that will reply.
    Cheers!!!

    Well I’m still wondering if it is compatibility issues because I’m also having problem with Photoshop CS5. These 3 are all bought at the same time (PC, Illustrator and Photoshop installers). The problem I’m having in Photoshop is not that too important, every time I Ctrl+O to view files, all PSD are shown in white paper like icons, no preview, and saving as well.
    Or I just purchased a corrupted or pirated installers… Adobe updates are done every time I’m prompted.

  • How do I restore text erased from a .txt document, named and saved frequently, and on Yosemite OSX?

    How do I restore text erased from a .txt document, named and saved frequently, and on Yosemite OSX?

    1. I have no reason to doubt it, the task is pretty simple.
    2. You should realise that these are not rewrites but progressions. PDF 1.7 adds just a little to PDF 1.6, and so on. Early versions of Acrobat would always update the version number to the latest version, whether or not they needed to do so. More recent versions have got smarter. Sounds as if XI is smarter still and is writing the version number actally needed rather than just the highest number it knows. People have strange ideas about PDF version numbers and sometimes want to do things like "open and save in the latest version" but this is not just useless but meaningless.
    3. In many cases the first line of the PDF contains the version number (but not the extension number), but this need not be accurate as a later piece of information (much later and harder to find) can override it.

  • Problem with parameters to fix opening of old tabs and saving files when a new session is open

    Hello,
    Since 2 weeks I have a problem: I always fix my parameters to restore previous session with all my tabs and I choose that Firefox asks me where I want to save my downloaded files. Now each time I close Firefox and I reopen it, it is not taken into account, and 3 tabs are opened: Firefox, Google and Thank to install Zotero! I rechange it, but every time it opens these tabs and not my old tabs. The same for saving files. It goes back automatically to open start page and to save my file in Downloads. Even if I rechange, it comes back the same.
    I desinstalled CCleaner (I thought it could be that) but nothing changes!
    Please help. Thank you very much!
    Martha

    Here's what I would try:
    *Reset Firefox - this should fix the issue but it will change settings like where files are downloaded and what tabs open at startup back to their defaults.
    *Then change your download and session restore preferences back to how you like them.
    Here's how:
    #Go to Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    #Open the options window - Tools > Options > General
    #In the General panel set Firefox to open your tabs from last time and set Firefox to ask you where to save downloads.
    #Click OK
    That should do it. Let me know if this worked.
    Thanks,<br>

  • CS3 crashes when Opening and saving files - also runs slow

    Today, while using photoshop, it locked up on me & I had to force quit. It then wouldn't open a file either via Bridge or the open menu. I could create a new file, but it would hang while attempting to save.
    I downloaded and ran the FixVCUIFramework, and it allowed me to open and save 1 file, before it started not saving or opening again. Running the Fix again has no effect.
    I switched to another user account, and everything works fine - in fact PS runs much speedier in the 2nd user account than in my main account. I hadn't noticed how slow it had become in opening and saving.
    Any ideas of where to look in trying to repair my main account? I don't want to have to migrate everything over to the 2nd account. Bridge in the 2nd account doesn't allow me to open all my folders, so I'd prefer not to work totally with a new user account.
    PSCS3 10.0.1
    Mac 2GHZ dual 4.5 gig ram
    10 gig external scratch disk - PS running at 71%
    Mac OS X.4.11
    A day without Photoshop is like a day without sunshine ...
    Thanks

    A forced quit WILL create corruption.
    An Archive and Install of the OS will give you a fresh system in your regular account while preserving your settings. Should take you less than 45 minutes.
    But you may want to try deleting your Photoshop preferences and running the 10.4.11 update over your existing 10.4.11 system first. That may work too, and it would be faster.

  • Office 2013 applications cannot be made to show the "Documents" folder when opening and saving files

    (Windows Server 2012R2 and Windows 8.1 PRO)
    We are redirecting the user's "Documents" folder to the network (using Folder Redirection). The OS hides this fact however, and most applications simply see the "Documents" folder when opening or saving files, including Office 2003.
    Office 2013 however displays the actual path, which in this case is:
    \\sever1\redirect$\username\documents
    Even if you forcibly set the "Default local file location:"  in the Options Save area to the 'Documents' folder in, say, Word, Word immediately converts the local path to the network path.
    Is there anyway to get Office 2013 to follow the virtual path? All of other apps follow it and expose the users only to "Documents".
    Thank you so much.
    Dana

    There's nothing in my FAQ concerning screen savers, so I'm unsure why you decided to take that approach. From your description, it looks like you only tried a few of the suggestions before throwing in the towel. That's fine, it's your call.
    I don't have the problems you described with 10.4.7. Usually when folks have problems after an update, these are caused by either installing an update on an already-corrutped system or they've installed third-party applications or hardware that have been rendered incompatible by the update.
    Before installing software updates, you may wish to consider the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ. Taking the steps therein before installing an update often helps avert problems and gives you a fallback position in case trouble arises.
    Good luck!

  • Scripting Applescript Editor and saving files

    I've created an Applescript that generates a smaller, simpler script.  I've gotten everything to work, but when I tell Applescript Editor to save the file, it doesn't work.  It doesn't error out, it acts like it finished properly, but nothing shows up in the location I told it to save.  Here's the snippet that's giving me problems:
    tell application "AppleScript Editor"
    activate
    make new document
    set contents of document 1 to fnlScrpt
    compile document 1
    save document 1 in "Macintosh HD:" as "application"
    close document 1 without saving
    end tell
    I'm going to define a more specific save location once I get it working, but for now it just saves to the top level.  It needs to save as an application, and close the script without saving it.  Any help is appreciated!

    Hi all,  I'm a little late to this thread in an attempt to get some scripts working in Lion.    Thanks for the help.  I noticed the way you set your globals, and the way you're having variables get passed on to recompiled scripts.  
    I take a different approach,  by writing my Applescript as text,  in quotation marks,  and then relying on fields getting filled in when the Applescript Editor is run, and the new script has the correct data.      I make one text entry called "QT_multiliner" and fill in variables using quotation marks and ampersands. 
    THIS FIRST SCRIPT is used to take variables given to it by a database,  and generate a custom applescript for any given record in the database.  
    set yyyymmdd to (((year of (current date)) * 10000) + ((month of (current date)) * 100) + (day of (current date))) as text
    set mmdd to (text items 5 through 8 of (yyyymmdd)) as text
    set qtPath to "/path/to/folder/" & mmdd & "/"
    set RenderPrefix to "filename_of_choice"
    set TGA_path to "/path/to/folder_with_files/" & mmdd & "/" & RenderPrefix & "/" as text
    set appletPath to "/path/to/folder/applet_name_" & RenderPrefix & ".app"
    set temp_doc to POSIX file appletPath
    --write the applet in Script Editor.  Variables will be filled in and compiled in Script Editor.
    set QT_multiliner to "tell application \"Finder\"
    set thePath to \"" & TGA_path & "\" as string
    activate
    make new Finder window
    set target of Finder window 1 to (POSIX file thePath)
    set theSequence to get first file of the front window as alias
    close window 1
    end tell
    set sequenceName to \"" & RenderPrefix & ".mov\"
    tell application id \"com.apple.quicktimeplayer\"
              activate
              open image sequence  theSequence  frames per second 23.98
              set savePath to \"" & qtPath & "/\" & sequenceName
              tell movie 1
                             with timeout of 2400 seconds
                                            export to  (POSIX file savePath) as QuickTime movie using settings alias \"path:to:settings:file\"
                             end timeout
                             close saving no
              end tell
              quit
    end tell"
    -- Write the script to its own applet 
    tell application id "com.apple.ScriptEditor2"
              set x to make new document
              set x to the front document
              set the text of document 1 to QT_multiliner
      compile document 1
              save document 1 as "application" in (temp_doc)
      quit
    end tell
    ...now,  when that is run,  the following applescript is generated with all of the variables filled in. 
    --This applet was saved by the previous script, and is saved as /path/to/folder/applet_name_filename_of_choice.app
    tell application "Finder"
              set thePath to "/path/to/folder_with_files/0112/filename_of_choice/" as string
      activate
      make new Finder window
              set target of Finder window 1 to (POSIX file thePath)
              set theSequence to get first file of the front window as alias
      close window 1
    end tell
    set sequenceName to "filename_of_choice.mov"
    tell application id "com.apple.quicktimeplayer"
      activate
      open image sequence theSequence frames per second 23.98
              set savePath to "/path/to/folder/0112//" & sequenceName
              tell document 1
                             with timeout of 2400 seconds
                                            export to (POSIX file savePath) as QuickTime movie using settings alias "path:to:settings:file"
                             end timeout
          close saving no
              end tell
      quit
    end tell
    I really liked Camelot's "script / end script" function,  it's better,  but I just couldn't get it to pipe variables through from one script to another.     Since I need to run this script on any one of dozens of computers,  I need the variables to be compiled and saved within each applet. 
    all the best,
    Vic

  • Open and saving files???

    When I try to open or save files, the pop up window wont display the existing files already on that folder. What is the problem?

    My apologies, it's not blue any more (it used to be), it's now white/grey (in 10.8). When you're in an application and click File - Save, or cmd-S, you should see the Save window, with the filename in the middle. The triangle is to the right of the filename. If the window is small, the triangle will be pointing downwards. Click it, and the window will expand and the triangle will point upwards.
    Note that, if you have iCloud Documents enabled, you may see "iCloud" under the filename. If that's the case, you're not actually looking at your computer, you're looking at your iCloud space and the expansion triangle won't work. Click "iCloud" to change to a location on your computer and the expansion triangle will be enabled.

  • Automate exports and imports (file names)

    Hi all,
    I will like to do a simple export and import into another schema in another database.
    I am very comfortable with the process but all i require is how to set the dump file and log file names to be the date and name of the database being exported and imported.
    For example when I do the export I want the dump file and logfile names to be exp_ORCL_230805.dmp and exp_ORCL_230805.log for database ORCL exported on 230805.
    For the import I want the logfile name to be imp_TEST_230905.log.
    I am doing this export and import on a windows xp client but the database reside on UNIX AIX boxes.
    Thanks alot

    Set up ORACLE_SID before you start the imp/exp session on the client, then you can use file=exp_%ORACLE_SID%_%DATE%.dmp etc. (Note that if your windows locale has a date format w/ whitespace you might have to write a script to get rid of it..)

  • Creating and Saving File Links

    Hi, been searching the forums and internet for my answer but can't seem to find the answer.  I have a PDF that I am creating links to other PDFs on an FTP server.  When users clicks on the link, the files automatically open in the reader.  Since the files are pretty big, I would like the users to have the option to either save the file or open the file (that way they don't have to wait for the file to download before saving).  Right clicking on the link does not give me the option to save the file.  Is this a setting I need to use when creating the links to give the option to save or is there another keyboard command?  Thanks for any assistance.  I am using Acrobat Pro 8.1.3
    JT

    G'day JT,
    When using Acrobat 8 Professional -
    The right click context menu associated with an Acrobat web link contains:
    --| Open Weblink in Browser
    --| Append to Document
    --| Open Weblink as a New Document
    --| Copy Link Location
    Adobe Reader does not provide this.
    So, what is available will be a function of what the end-user has.
    For either Adobe Reader or Acrobat.
    Edit > Preferences > select the Category "Internet"
    In the Web Browser Options pane "Display PDF in browser" can be selected (default) or can be unticked.
    Selected => A PDF in web space is displayed in the browser.
    Unticked => A PDF in web space is downloaded and rendered by the PDF viewer identified to the OS.
    But, this is a User controlled setting.
    Looking about, you may come across "app.launchURL()".
    To quote from a post by Thom Parker over at the Acrobat User Community,
    "In Acrobat 7 the "app.launchURL()" function was added to the Acrobat JavaScript model. 
    This function has an input argument for forcing the web page to open in a new window. 
    If your users are on a later version it will work for them.  Look it up in the Acrobat JavaScript Reference."
    However, this would still open the target PDF - there'd be no "save target as..."
    It might be that to have a "save target as..." option you may have to provide an HTML file with links to the PDFs.
    Be well...

  • Downloaded and Saved Files Do Not Show On Desktop

    I've noticed just in the past two weeks that files such as email attachments, photos, or other files downloaded from Safari or Mail do not appear on the desktop where the default location is set. Also, this happens when I save a Word document or a document from another application (it's not application specific) and it's supposed to show up on the desktop. When I go to find them, they're not there. They don't show up in a separate Finder window either. In order to get them to show up, I have to do a spotlight search for them. Spotlight's file path for the file is always to the desktop where it's supposed to be. Once I click on it in Spotlight to see the filepath, then the file shows up on the desktop like it was supposed to. What in the world is going on?
    1) This did not start happening after an update.
    2) Not application specific - it happens no matter what I try to save to the desktop.
    3) It just started happening one day with no apparent reason.
    4) My hard drive sounds fine - no unusual noises.

    Sounds to me like you just need to Repair Permissions with Disk Utility then rebuild launch services database. Use the method described here:
    http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/resetlaunchservices.html
    This one solves lots of odd problems. And repairing permissions is just the standard first step any time you have a problem. Also, a simple restart can often fix things like this.
    Another method can be restarting in Safe Mode, right after the bong hold down the shift key until the login window appears which should say Safe Mode on it. (This automatically fixes a number of things, but if you have any font settings in Font Book you will need to redo them.) Then just restart normally.
