How can I display the name of my refnum on the front panel?

I am writing data to a file. To do this, I am using "Open/Create/Replace File" to prompt the user for a filename, which is then output to my VI as a refnum. I then write strings to this file with "Write to Text File".
How can I display this filename (with the path) on the front panel after the user has input it?

Use the Refnum to Path function, in File I/O -> Advanced File Functions palette. You can wire this to a path indicator.

How can I get a reference to all controls on a front panel of one type )for example of the type Text Ring?

I'd like to set the strings[] property of all the Text Ring controls on a front panel at once without creating a property node for every text ring. How can i do that?

This is likely more complicated than making property nodes for each
ring, but you can do it. Make a subVI that takes in a panel reference,
reads the array of control references, loops through them looking for
rings, and modifying the Strings[] property on each ring.
The part of this that will probably be the least obvious, when you
have an array of control references there are two ways to find out
if an element is a ring. You can read the classID and compare it
to the cla
ssID of a true ring control. An alternative is to cast
the control reference to a ring control using a Cast to more specific
node and wire the error out to a case structure. The error case is
where the objects that aren't rings will go. The success case case
where you will have a valid ring refnum that you can use to modify
the strings.

Table date format - How can I display Week 1, Week 2, instead of the date?

I would like to creat a table for my Gantt, that displays the week number unit, as I have as the middle tier in my timescale on the Gantt side of the view. I cannot find how to do this anywhere. I know I can change the way the date is displayed,
format wise, while in the table edit area, however one of the choices is NOT the week #. The data must exsist as the timescale displays it!
My goal is to creat a table that instead of showing the start date for a task, displaces the start week: i.e. Week 1, Week 2, ...ect.
Any help is appreciated,
Craig.

Craig --
Bad news, my friend. What you want to do with the date format in the table cannot be done. The format you see in the Timescale bar is simply not an available date option in any table. Sorry.

How can I remove my name from being associated with the GB file I export?

I am using Garage Band '11, 6.0.5.
I am editing an audio recording for a friend.
When I exported the edited recording, it had my name associated with the file as the artist, album, etc.
I searched and found "My info" (in "Preferences") and deleted my information from ALL name, album, artist fields, but it still exported the file with my name as the artist (but it did not list it as from my album this time)?
Does anyone know how/where/what I need to do to remove all references of my name associated with this file I'm editing?
And also, can I change who is associated with a GB file, from file to file (i.e. if editing my audio, use my name & info, if editing for a friend or colleague, theirs? or is the name associated with my GB account universally embedded into every file, no matter if I want it to be mine or not)?
Thank you for your support!
Joe

When I exported the edited recording, it had my name associated with the file as the artist, album, etc.
The problem is, that this information is stored with the GarageBand project, when you first create the project. You have to edit the Preferences, before you create the project.
If the project already exists, you can change this option by turning the project into a podcast. Add a Podcast track (Track menu, Show Podcast Track), select the podcast track, and open the Info panel. Then edit the artist field in the Info panel, before you save the song to disk.
(added: I saw the workaround with the Podcast track first in a post by Edgar).

How can i remove a name that comes up as the Home user next to the House symbol?

For some reason when the House symbol appears in any incidence on my Mac Pro lap top although it is only me that has ever used it it shows the name Sharon next to the house which isn't mine! I can only presume it has been imported across with other stuff from my old lap top which previously belonged to a Sharon! Does any one know how to change this please? Thanks

How can I stop and restart a .vi with a single front panel button?

Hey guys, a newbie here.
I have a .vi with a stacked sequence. The first few frames are hardware initialization and settings (LIN master node) and the data the hardware should transmit (frame response table). In the next frame there's a loop in which the hardware sends and recieves data (LIN monitor). If I want to change the initialization, settings or data values, I have to stop the .vi and restart it. I was wondering if there is a simple way of doing this with a single click (a button on the front panel).
An alternative would be to put another loop outiside the whole stacked sequence and then run it a single time with a push of a button (the inner loop should let the outer one restart), is that possible?
I hope I made any sense. Thanks for any suggestions.

Ideally, redoing the code with a state machine would be the best way to go, if only so that you can add this powerful tool to your toolbox. That being said, wrapping your existing code in a while loop, with its own stop button to stop the program, will work if executing the entire sequence is ok. Where you might run into problems with this is if there is a step in the sequence that shouldn't be executed again, then it would require wrapping that sequence frame's code in a case statement that executes only the first time through. If you have the time, learning how to use a state machine would be a real benefit, really taking your LabVIEW knowledge to the next step, if you pardon the pun.

How can i display a list of all the names stored in the Mail app?

When sending an email, the program shows a list of names according to the first and subsequent letters that I type into the To: field. There are times I cannot recall someone's email user name. How can I display a complete list of all the names Mail has stored? I know that I can go to the To: field then type in the letter A, then write down all listings under A, and then repeat for each letter of the alphabet, but there should be an easier method.
I have perhaps dozens of names in Mail, but only five names in Address Book, so the latter does me no good.

How can we display the list of Report Names in Dashboard Prompt?

Hi,
No its not possible to display list of reports in dashboard prompts.
Can do this using SQl results in prompt(we write query checking out report names manualy),but its not easy thing if you are having many report names to be displayed.

How can I display the front panel of the dinamically loaded VI on the cliente computer, the VI dinamically loaded contains files, I want to see the files that the server machine has, in the client machine

I can successfully view and control a VI remotly. However, the remote VI dinamically loads another VI, this VI loaded dinamically is a VI that allows open others VIs, I want to see the files that contains the server machine, in the client machine, but the front panel of the dinamic VI appears only on the server and not on the client, How can I display the fron panel with the files of the server machine of the dinamically loaded VI on the client computer?

I down loaded your files but could use some instructions on what needs run.
It seems that you are so close yet so far. You need to get the data on the server machine over to the client. I generally do this by doing a call by reference (on the client machine) of a VI that is served by the server. THe VI that executes on the server should pass the data you want to diplay via one of its output terminals. You can simply wire from this terminal (back on the client again) to an indicator of your choosing.
Now theorectically, I do not think that there is anything that prevents use from getting the control refnum of the actual indicator (on the server) of the indicator that has the data, and read its "Value" using a property node. I have never tried this idea but it seems t
hat all of the parts are there. You will need to know the name of the VI that holds the data as well as the indicator's name. You will also have to serve all VI's. This is not a good idea.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
I don't think you can. You might ensure that their creation dates are in order, but I'm not so such that will help. Ordering seems to be a feature limited to use with iPhoto/Aperture.

How can i display the Number instead of E

Hello Everyone ;
I am getting confused. How can i display the Number but the Exponential value is coming as E.
SQL> select sum(amount_sold) from sales;
SUM(AMOUNT_SOLD)
1.1287E+11
Table details ..
SQL> desc sales
Name                                          Null?        Type
AMOUNT_SOLD NUMBER
i want to change 1.1287E+11 to "numeric"
DB : 10.2.0.4
os : rhel 5.1

Just a minor correction on an obvious math/responding too fast error: 1.1287E+11 is a 12 digit number. You move the decimal 11 positions to the right which would add 7 zeroes to the value.
