  • How to output strings to an text file and excel file

    Hi guys,
    I am writing a simple application taht process some string inputs from user using a simple GUI. The GUI consists of a series of
    textfields which the user can enter names, age, addresses....etc
    Once they complete filling up that GUI form, they click SUBMIT. All the values will then be read. These strings are then required to be output to 2 files
    1. To a text file which I can open it and read it anytime I wish.
    2. To an excel file which follows a specific format. That is, all names will be written to column B, all ages will be written to column C...etc
    The programme is expected to keep running allow the user to enter details of multiple persons(some 300 sets of data of different persons) until he clicks on End program.
    Please advise how I can output the strings to
    1. Text file
    2. Excel file.
    Many many thanks. I need this for one of my project which is due so so soon...... :((
    Regards
    David

    1. Text file
    See link to "Documentation - Tutorials" on the left
    side of this page.
    2. Excel file
    Dont try to write the real excel format (if you want
    to do it soon).
    - write data to a plain text file.
    - Use tab stops for separation of values.
    - Name file as excel file. (*.xls)
    If you double click this file, excel will import data
    and insert it to a table in the right order by
    itself.
    Excel can save this as real .xls now.
    Anyone here with a better idea? (Try to learn by
    myself)good thing to know for the excel tip :)
    thx

  • How to parse data from a text file with no convenient delimiters?

    I need to read data from a text file.  This file contains one line of data with the repeating pattern "time 00 ADVar2: ___ Height: ____ time 01 ADVar2: ___ Height: ___ ..."  I need LabView to parse out the "time" and "height" values, build an array with the values, and graph the correlation on an X&Y plot.  Does Labview have an automated way to read to the input data file and parse out the correct values, even without convenient delimiters?  Thank you.

    You actually do have a convenient delimiter: "time". Thus, you can make an array using that as the delimiter. Only caveat is that the first array element will be empty. Then you can conveniently use the Scan From String function in a for-loop. Something like this:

  • How to write from beginning of text file?

    Hello all,
    All we have to do is to modify just first 2 lines of a 200,000 line files. I can do UTL_FILE.FCOPY to copy from line 3 to end of file and create a new file (FILE1). Now open a new file (say FILE2) and write the modified version of first two lines and then read the file (FILE1) which has rest of the original contents to write to this FILE2. But this process is taking for ever (around 30 minutes).
    It would have been easy if I can open FILE1 and just write the first 2 lines. But when I open in append mode I can only write only at the bottom of the file. I tried UTL_FILE.FSEEK but it is not working when the file is opened in Append mode.
    Anyone with a solution / suggestion / workaround is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Manohar

    Francois,
    I know the command in Unix to concatenate. There are other easy ways if I can make HOST command work on the application server instead of my local machine. To my surprise both HOST and TEXT_IO are able to work only on my local machine.
    I was under the same impression as you are and trying to execute HOST providing Unix commands. Nothing working ... finally when I tried
    HOST('echo abc > c:\sample.txt');
    it crreated sample.txt on my local machine c:\
    Let me know if I am missing something.
    Thanks

  • How to write heading in the xls file with each of the channel in each column?

    Dear All,
    While writing the data into the xls file through .lvm method I want the Headong for each channel to be include on each of the column, but i dint know how to do this? is this possible in the LabVIEW from any of the file writing method? if yes how can i do that? please help me.........
    Thanks,
    Nishant Desai

    Thanks Chilly,
    Its a really fantastic idea, and it works for me too, but the thing inside was every time once it writes the heading and then it write the data again after that it wirtes the heading and write the data, but i ve copup with dat and i ve modified the vi which u ve given to me, i am attaching that vi to with this.
    wat i ve done is just putting the write to spreadsheet data vi into the while loop and other all are outside the while loop, which makes the heading to write once and data to write continuosly.
    Thanks & Regards,

    thanks masijade,
    i have filter the file chooser for only text files,
    but i still don't know how to use FileReader to put text file content to the text area (ta) ..
    please tell me how and where to use it..How? -- See the IO Tutorials on Sun for the FileReader (and I assume you know how to call setText and append in the JTextArea).
    Where? -- In the actionPerformed method (better would be a separate thread that is triggered through the actionPerformed method, but that is probably beyond you at the moment), of course.
    Give it a try.

  • How to write data to an XML file present under application server

    frnds: can ne one tell me, how to write data in to a file, which is present under a application server
    Ex: i want to write a string data in to a file test.txt which is present under "http://localhost:8080/<some_webapp>/test.txt"
    Note:i have deploted a service<some_webapp> under Tomcat/webapps dir

    import java.io.*;
    protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse resp) {
    try {
    String filePath = this.getServletContext().getRealPath("/text.txt");//See http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/2.2/javadoc/javax/servlet/ServletContext.html#getRealPath(java.lang.String)
             PrintWriter writer = new PrintWriter (filePath);
            //or BufferedWriter out = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(filePath));

           writer.flush();
            writer .close();
        } catch (Exception e) {

  • Write arrays into a text file in different columns at different times

    Hi,
              I have a problem write data into a text file. I want to write 4 1D arrays into a text file. The problem is that I need to write it at different time and in different column (in other word, not only append the arrays).
    Do you have an idea to solve my problem?
    Thank you

    A file is long a linear string of data (text). In order ro insert columns, you need to rewrite the entire file, because colums are interlaced over the entire lenght of the file.
    So:
    read file into 2D array
    insert columns using array operations
    write resulting 2D array to file again.
    (Only if your colums are guaranteed to be fixed width AND you know the final number of colums, you could write the missing columns as spaces and then overwrite later. Still, it will be painful and inefficient, because column data are not adjacent in the file.)

  • How can u insert and retrieve text files in any format using forms6i.

    how can u insert and retrieve text files in any format using forms6i.
    can u give me an example of an insert statement, let's assume the file is located in the a:drive.
    and retrieving the files, i would give the user a list of all the files that are in the database, the user would select one, but what command(or piece of code) would open the file in its apppropriate editor.
    e.g .pdf formatted file would open in acrobat.
    any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    the filereference class is for downloading and uploading files.
    if you want to load xml, use the xml class.
    and, if you want to write to an xml file and don't want to use server-side code, wait.

  • How to write new line to a File?

    How to write new line to a file?
    I have a string to be written to a file. the string contains "\n" in it. But why it is not showing the new line in the file.
    I have tryed FileWriter class and FileOutputStream class, but none of them works?
    any suggestion please...

    Probably using PrintStream::println() is a portable way.
    import java.io.FileOutputStream;
    import java.io.PrintStream;
    public class NewLine {
        public static void main(String[] args) {
         try {
             PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream("foo.txt"));
             ps.write("string".getBytes());
             ps.println();
             ps.close();
         } catch (java.io.IOException e) {
             e.printStackTrace();
    }Regards,

    Yes. In theme directory i put background.png shortcut for my wallpaper. So, when a change wallpaper, slim background change too.
    Example:
    ln -s mywallpaper.png /usr/share/slim/themes/default/background.png
    So, Slim background always is my wallpaper.
    So the wallpaper has to be a *.png ?
    No, jpg is possible. But when you create a symbolic link, remember put the extension too. If change png to jpg, change a symbolic link extension.
    But, remember if slim theme directory have background.png and background.jpg, Slim always choice .png. So, put only one this.

  • Write data to multiple text files after specific size

    Hello,
    I wrote a code that contineously writes data to  a text file. The problem is I am running this VI for long time and therefore this text file is being bigger in size e.g. more than 10MB. I want to split writing data in this text file after max 1MB size. Can anyone help ????
    thanks in advance.

    You could use the "File/Directory Info Function" in the Advanced File VIs and Function palette to check the size. If the file is too big. close it and create a new one.
    I would use the Get File Position since this won't cause Windows to have to do so much.  Assuming you are just writing and not setting the file position manually, this will return the size of the file in bytes (file position will always be at the end of the file).
