Controlling the share permission when writing a text file

I have several application that writes a delimited text file to a file share. Another application, not a LabVIEW application then reads the delimited text file. When my application is creating and/or writing to the delimited text file, is there a way to manipulate the permissions so that no other application can read the file at the same time I'm writing to the file? I can do this in Visual Basic via the FileShare (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.fileshare(v=vs.110).aspx) option when creating filestream, but I don't see this option in LabVIEW. Thanks.
Solved!

Nevermind. I believe this can be accomplished with the "Deny Access" function.

Strange character appear when writing to text file.

Hello, I am facing some problem when I read some data from and binary file (.dat) and then saving them into text file.
When I convert those data into string and then write to a text file. Some strange characters were found in the file when I opened it with excel. Could anybody tell me how these strange characters( ) are generated and how to eliminate them?
The VI , .dat file and the text file are attached as below.(use the "open file" in the menu to open .dat file and then use the "export file" in menu to export to text file)
Thank you very much......
The .dat and text file are attached in the next post.

Is there a way to automatically add the filename in the page header when batch printing text files directly from finder?

hello, i have 80 text files (docx). the finder preview works great and i can open them in pages.
I need to batch print them from finder:
I select all the documents > drag on printer's icon> printer puts them in queue ( after an on the fly pdf conversion) ad starts printing.
BUT
i need the filename printed on each page ( in hearder or footer) , not only the regular text content.
Do you know if there is a workaround?
thank you

If that section has an ID or NAME attribute then you can add that to the URL (#anchor) that you want to reload.

I was given an assingment, but have no idea where to begin. The assingment is to create a text file using notepad with all of my digital inputs and some how make those imputs show up on my digital indicators on my control pannel.
When it was explained to me it didn't sound to hard of a task, I have no LabVIEW experience and the tutortial sucks.

StevenD: FYI, I did NOT give you the one star rating. I would never do that!

Well, this is an assignment, so it is probably homework.
Why else would anyone give HIM such an assigment, after all he has no LabVIEW experience and the tutorials are too hard for him?
This would make no sense unless all of it was just covered in class!
This is not a free homework service with instant gratification.
OK! Let's do it step by step. I assume you already have a VI with the digital indicators.
"...but have no idea where to begin".
open notepad.
decide on a format, possibly one line per indicator.
type the document.
close notepad.
open LabVIEW.
Open the existing VI with all the indicators.
(are you still following?)
look at the diagram.
Who made the program?
Does the code make sense so far?
Is it a statemachine or just a bunch of crisscrossed wires?
Where do you want to add the file read?
How should the file be read (after pressing a read button, at the start of the program ,etc.)
See how far you get!

Do you mean a trial account from .Mac? (DotMac)
"Get an AIM Screen name and set it to Display what you want as you set it up.
The Screen name can be whatever yu want but you can also set it to display something else as well."
I had thought about this, but it seems other people have already chosen the screen name "pinksharkmark" and virtually every variation of it I can think of. So that isn't an option for me. As for getting it to display something else as well, do you mean that if I were to get an AIM screen name like "CromulentCat" I could somehow log in to iChat under the AIM account "CromulentCat" yet get iChat to represent me to my Buddies as "PinkSharkMark"? Because I have to admit I don't see how that can be done. It appears as if iChat displays to anyone chatting with you precisely the account name you logged in under and nothing else. So if you logged in using a .Mac account, then you are displayed as "[email protected]" while if you logged in under an AIM account, you are displayed as "CromulentCat". But that's it that's all... there is no way to change CromulentCat to PinkSharkMark.
Thanks very much for taking the time to reply, though.

How to stop iphone 4s from putting a space after the second digit, when entering a text number from the keypad

How do I stop the iphone 4s from putting a space after the second digit, when entering a text number from the keypad. Entering a text number on the key pad like 61998 comes out on the screen as 61 998 and the sms fails to go.

The space (or lack thereof) should have no effect on whether or not the SMS goes through. The spacing is intended to make it easier for the human eye to comprehend the number. I'd start by resetting the network settings in General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.

Deleted cell number appears (along with the edited number) when sending a text. How do I get rid of it?

Deleted cell number appears (along with the edited number) when sending a text. How do I get rid of it?

It has nothing to do with iOS 6. It's always been that way. Given that it's been this way for so long, one assumes that Apple knows about it and has their own reasons for not changing it.
Restore the phone as new, not from back up to delete the numbers. Or, wait until the cache gets overwritten.
Best of luck.

How can I control the image size when I export form iphoto, the choice is too limited, I need to send a photo under 3 MB but if I choose high quaulity it is only 1.1 and i need to keep the best quaulity I can. Thanks for help.

Any image can only be as large as the Original. With a program like Photoshop you can UpRes an image and get it to a bigger size, larger files size as well, but the actual quality of the image will be degraded, depending on the UpRes system and the original quality of the image.
iPhoto is not the program to be doing that in and I don't think it even has that option.
So I suspect the image you are trying to send isn't much bigger than what you are getting. You can also try Exporting it from iPhoto to yopur desktop and see what size you end up with. If it is still that 209KB +/- file size then that is the size of the original image.

[svn] 2710: Fixed 3.1. 0 by reverting to the old behaviour when writing out debug

Revision: 2710
Author: [email protected]

Log Message:
Fixed 3.1.0 by reverting to the old behaviour when writing out debug
line numbers. This prevents the player from seeing -1, which was
causing hangs/crashes. The real fix is to track down where synthetic
functions are getting generated and make them not debuggable, so they
don't reuse the debug line numbers from previous debuggable functions.
This will be done in trunk in a follow on checkin.

Error when Writing Metadata to Files in Bridge (Mac) but not in Bridge (PC)

We get an error when writing metadata to files in Bridge (Mac) but not in Bridge (PC). In the same drive and folder, the PC can successfully write a keyword to a file on the PC, where the Mac returns an error. I have researched this at the Adobe Knowledgebase, but their answer seemed to indicate it was a global issue, and we don't see that behavior on the PC.
The client is a Mac of course, and the server volume is a Windows share volume. The Mac is bound to AD, and the domain\username and username formats have both been tried when logging in, but you receive the error in both.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi, I'm having the same problem using FreeNAS (which uses Samba and Netatalk in the backend), but I tried with both AFP and SMB on Mavericks and Yosemite, I still have the same issue. I think it might be a timing issue with how lightroom interact with a slower write delay using network shares. I suggest you also chime into this thread: Lightroom 5 can't write metadata to DNG files I really hope this is resolved as this is impacting my productivity as I moved my workflow to my Macbook with a shared NAS.

What are the cases that cause the I/O error writing to output file

may i ask what are the cases that cause the I/O error writing to output file ??
cause i have the write path and the input file has data
any ideas???

and the permission is to write first time then append to itBy "permission" is meant the operating system controlled rights that let
particular users do specified things with specified files or directories.
the error message is a the title of the message
I/O error writing to output fileThe java runtime actually creates a much more useful error message than
this but, unfortunately, your program is swallowing this error message and
replacing it with the message you see.
Somewhere in your code you have something like:try {
    // all sorts of stuff goes here
    // including the code that is intended to
    // write to the file
} catch(IOException ioe) {
    System.out.println("I/O error writing to output file");
        // add this line
    //ioe.printStackTrace();
}It might say Exception rather than IOException.
To get a much more useful error message add the commented line.

Timestamp when saved in text file and reloaded does not give correct dates

Hello
I am struggling with time stamp. I have almost corrected the problem but it is not as good as I expect it to be.
I have data in the main vi which logs into text file with time stamp for everyday results logs.
I then pull all this data to display on waveform graph with the performance data on y axis and time stamp on x axis.
I convert the time stamp data from string back to time stamp using scan from function in string pallette. When I run the waveform graph vi. The time stamp data is not correct one. I see year values beginning 1974 etc. I change these values to 2011 and the correct dates and then could see the accurate logged data from data logger but I would like to have the starting date in my logged file the left most date on x-axis. I try modify dates in display format section of waveform graph but I think it gives the values in seconds which doesn't make much sense to me. Is it possible to automatically set the starting value of the graph as the first date in the logged file? I am new with using time stamps. Any feedback will be appreciated.
Kind Regards
Austin

Hi Austin,
"Is it possible to automatically set the starting value of the graph as the first date in the logged file?"
Sure: Use autoscaling, format x-axis as time and use waveforms with correct t0 value...
For all other questions you should attach a VI to show your current state of programming!

Errors when writing metadata to files on Windows Server

Good day!
I have an iMac running OSX 10.9 (Maverick) and Lightroom 5.2.
My catalog is on the local iMac drive, and the images are on SMB shared drive (handled by Windows 2012 server).
I decided to do the final layout of my album using InDesign, and for that I needed to access to images using Bridge. So selected all the images (the rated once...) and issue a Metadata/Save command.
The system came back with errors on many of the files (such as Photos are read only, and unknown errors).
Retrying to save the metadata on image that was flagged with an error usually (but not always) worked.
I tried to select save the metadata for few (6) images in a time, many times it was ok, but sometimes, one or two of them failed (and retrying again usually solved the problem).
It looks to me like a timing related issue.
Any ideas?
(After spending about an hour on this, I have exported the images to my local drive...). In general I don't have similar problems with other apps.
Any ideas?
Yuval

I Yuval
I'm experiencing more or less the same behavior (see Read-only error when writing metadata to file over network (Synology DS1315+ using AFP) ). For me however, the problem is more pronounced if I use the AFP protocol and is better (I think as you described) if I use SMB (all done on a Synology DS1315+). With SMB it most often works but in very rare cases I also get the "read only" message!
Do you have solution to this? Or are you stuck as I am?
Cheers, Chris

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!
