How to programmatically overwrite the file in Labview?
Iam using Copy.VI for copying a file from one directory to other. If the file is already exist in destination directory, Copy.VI generates an error of "10". I wanted to overwrite the file which is already exist. Does anyone has solution. I have attached a file which is written in Labview 6.1.

Always run a delete first, or alternatively; run a delete if the copy fails with error 10 and then redo the copy operation...

How to open a .MAT file in LABVIEW
Hey everyone,
I currently have a .MAT image file which I would like to open in LABVIEW to apply some image filters. However, I am unsure as to how to open the .MAT file in LABVIEW. Ideally I would like to be able to open the .MAT file without using matlab, and it seems the only way to accomplish this task is through the mathscript node. I have attached an example of the image im trying to open, as well as the LABVIEW program which I would like to use on the image. Thanks for the feedback! =]

MAT_Image_Adjust.zip 1779 KBHi Boiler,
1) Do you have a choice in the format you export your data from MATLAB?
"ASCII Format
Complete the following steps if you want to import or export data between LabVIEW and the MATLAB® environment, the process is straightforward as long as you are using ASCII format.
From the MATLAB® environment to LabVIEW
To save a vector or a matrix Xin ASCII format with tab delimiter, enter the following in the command window or m-script file in the MATLAB® environment:
>>SAVE filename X -ascii -double -tabs
This creates a file whose name is filename, and it contains the data X in ASCII format with a tab delimiter.
Import the file into LabVIEW using the Read From Spreadsheet File VI located on the Programming»File I/O palette.
2) Have you tried using the mathscript node? Did you get any errors?
"Binary Format
Complete the following steps if you want to import or export data between LabVIEW and MATLAB®.
From the MATLAB® environment to LabVIEW
To read a .mat file in LabVIEW would require a VI to parse the file. This may be easier if each variable is saved to a separate file.
" -- this was done here, no ideas if it still works,

Hope this helps, James

How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document. When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

How to print a pdf file from Labview
Hi,
Does anyone know how to print a pdf file form Labview. I need to be able to point on the pdf file and to print it.
Activex examples doesnt seem to be working it always displays an error, on every PC that I tryed to run it.
{"code 3005" ,,,"Automation Open: Object specified is not creatable in Display PDF in Dialog.vi"}.
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Jenia.You can use the "System Exec.vi". The command line should have the following structure:
"<Path to AcroRd32.exe>" /t "<Path to document>" "Printer name"
For example"
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /t "C:\myreport.pdf" "Tektronix Phaser 300i"
Regards;

How to open an external file in Labview?
Hi, Who knows how to open an external file in LabView? I want to open an .UDL file(data link API) which is a dialog window letting me input correlated database information, but I dont know how to open this type of file in my LabView Program.
Thanks.
RedA UDL is technically a text file, so you could open it with "Read Characters from file", put the result string into a string control, edit it and save it back using the "Write Characters to File".
UDLs however have their own configuration dialog embedded in the Windows OS. You can use this dialog in your LabVIEW application. The attached VI shows how to create a new UDL. You can edit an existing UDL by switching the method node to PromptEdit and wiring in an open ADO connection reference.

I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?
The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
Do cleanup.

I downloaded an Adobe file from my email (service provider is MWeb) but now cannot find it on my hard drive and it's not in the recycle bin. It does, however, appear in Firefox downloads but I'm unable to open it from there. How can I recover the file?
Thanks Rob.
I actually had no clue what the core problem was caused by. So it's Windows itself...that helps some.
I'll resubmit there. It might actually have saved time for it to simply have been moved to there instead of off-topic, though I suppose you have to follow protocol. -

How can I take the files that were migrated from my PC to my Mac and add all those files to my current user instead of having 2 users? Having to log out just to sign in on a different user to access the files is absurd.
Do I make all the files sharable to all the NOW users on the mac then just delete the files? Or can i erase my account that I made when starting up my new mac and then just use the one with the transferred files?
I just dont want to have to og in and out of 2 different accounts .. Help please.
-NinaSorry. /Users is a folder path. It would be similar to C:\Users (if that exists on Windows).
So, in the Finder, select Computer from the Go menu.
You'll see Macintosh HD, double-click that to open it.
In there you'll see several folders. One is Users. That is where all the user Home folders exist. Select the other account's home folder and go to step 3.
If you have any more confusion, please stop and ask. We'll get there.
If you feel more comfortable, you can just log into that other account and move the files into /Users/Shared.
Then, log into the account you wish to use and copy the files from the Shared folder and paste them into your Home folder, wherever they belong, Documents, Music, Pictures, etc. That just takes a little more work. Transferring them into Shared, and then copying into your home sets the permissions on the files so that you won't have a problem accessing them later. The steps I provided just prevent you from having to do the double move, since you are not going to use the old account once you are done.
Quick unix shorthand. If someone gives you a file path that begins with a /, that means the root of the hard drive, ie Macintosh HD (if you haven't renamed it). The path separator in unix is /, not \.
A path that starts with ~/ means your Home folder, the one inside /Users named with your account name. -

How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?
How can I delete the files .DS_store in Mac OS Yosemite?
The .DS_Store file is normal. It holds certain settings related to the folder it is found in. Removing these files is futile, as they will come back, as you have observed.
If you are seeing them on your Mac, that means you have changed settings so that your Mac is showing invisible files in the Finder. To reverse that, run the following command in the Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO
This will hide them, and any other invisible files, from view.
If you are seeing them on a Windows machine, just ignore them. They're not doing any harm.
If you found a Terminal command that is supposed to stop them from being created, I would be extremely skeptical as to the wisdom of running it.
