How to display an array in a VB form

I am new to Measurement Studio. This could be a silly question.
I am so used to the front panel in Labview where you can have control/indicator arrays. You can expand an array to see several values at the same time. Plus you have an index display to scroll.
Is there any similar feature in Measurement Studio for Visual Basic or Visual C? If not, why not.
cheers

No, there isn't currently a tabular or array control provided with Measurement Studio. There are a few reasons for this. First off, remember, LabVIEW is a graphical language, there isn't anything that isn't a control or indicator on a front panel. The array control in LabVIEW is mainly there as the datatype for arrays, not specifically as a UI object, although it is frequently used that way.
In Measurement Studio, the focus of the User Interface components is adding the controls to Visual Studio that are needed for test and measurement applications. Visual Studio comes with a tabular type interface called the DataGrid control for displaying numeric and string data in a table format built-in. This is what you would want to use to display arrays. We
would definately consider adding a table type interface if our users needed a lot more functionality than was provided by the Visual Studio DataGrid control.
I know it can be frustrating going back and forth between the tools and seeing different things available. Remember, they are designed for different users though. Measurement Studio is designed to equip Visual Studio programmers to do Test & Measurement programming easily, it isn't designed to provide LabVIEW type functionality to Visual Studio users. So some LabVIEW functionality won't exist in Measurement Studio purposefully, and also some functionality in Measurement Studio that isn't in LabVIEW since it doesn't suit graphical programming.
Try the DataGrid control, and let us know if it doesn't meet your needs.

    For external window, I tried this method : wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createExternalWindow(String URL, String title, boolean modal) but there are no parameter for view name?

    I have a html tag related data in my Ztable..I want to display this converted string from HTML Tab on adobe, please explain me how to fix this issue.

    Hi Juergen,
    I found Your blog and found it  really interesting... though I was not able to use it: I (like Jun Li is asking, I guess) need to use a dynamic text, containing formatting informations (according the xhtml syntax).
    I tried to pass it to the form by an ABAP-dictionary based interface and by means of the context (in a webdynpro page), but both tries failed.
    Some suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
    Thankyou

  • How to display more rows in Master-detail form

    I am working on APEX3.2.
    I have a master-detail form. The detail form always display 15 rows. However, my customer wants the detail display all the rows. I tries to configure the Number of Rows in the report. It doesn't work. How do I do it?
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi:
    To increase number of rows displayed you have to set Number of Rows and pay attention to both Number of Rows (Item) and Maximum Row Count.
    After that if didn't work, sign out or close the browser then open it again. Sometimes it keeps the value in current session.

  • How to display "Metadata Only" field in Update Form

    Hi,
    I have added the below configuration in Config.cfg file to make Primary File non mandatory,
    AllowPrimaryMetaFile=true
    suppressAlternateFile=true
    createPrimaryMetaFile=true
    After restarting the server it displayed "Metadata only" fileld upon selecting Primary File became non mandatory, but while updating the Content this field is not getting displayed, rather it is displaying Original File field and Primary File became mandatory.
    Could you please let me know how to make Primary File non mandatory (otherwise displaying "Metadata only") in Update form. Appreciate your help on this. Thank you.
    Thanks,
    Ashok

    Hi Srinath,
    Thank you for responding, here we need to make Primary File non mandatory by displaying "Metadata only" field. we achieved this in Check In form, we need the same in Update Form.
    From the Kyle blog, he specified that option to completely hide Primary File but our requirement is making non mandatory by introducing metadata only field.

    Hello Sudip,
    Which is the JRE version which you are using ? Check this SAP note 1341069, which specifies that the properties will not load when JRE 1.6 is used. (Try 1.4 or 1.5 )
    For author field try giving caption $sap_user, and schema reference, creator. For created which is date try giving /Properties/default:created, and /Properties/default:createdby for created by.
