Search row and column for return value

Dear Sir/Madam,
                           I have a problem for searching spreadsheet and hope you can help me out a bit.  Im pretty new to Labview and Im currently using Labview 8.0.  My task is to search the spreadsheet I have attached in row and column-wise, then return the corresponding value out.  I had an attempt in doing this as you can see from the vi that i have attached.  I try inputting the 'read from measurement file' into an array and using delete, index and search array I will be able to find the index value for the relevant row and column that i searched for by inputting them into an index array with the orginal array from the 'read from measurement file'.
                          So ultimately, when i enter a row value of 0.5 and a column value of 0.3, my output will be 1.688.
                          I can't see any mistakes in my logic but I getting really strange results, like I can read my data has been entered into an array but when i try deleting the first column and put it into another array, the orginal array with nothing deleted is outputted hence making my search to give out -1 value. So could you take a look please and give me any suggestion that can solve my problem or enhance the code a bit.  Thank you for your time.
Best Regards,
Coato
P.s for some reason i can't attached the .lvm file of my data hence i have attached the excel version but i think you need to convert it back to .lvm for the 'read from measurement file' function to work.

Your VI makes absolutely no sense to me, but maybe I don't understand what you are trying to do.
You seem to have dynamic data with 6 signals and 48 points/channel. Now you reshape this into an array of dynamic data with 4x13 elements from which you slice out one row or column, resp. "delete from array" is NOT the correct tool to do this, use "Index array" with one index unwired to get a row or column as 1D array.
So you end up with two 1D arrays of dynamic data that you search for DBL. It is difficult to understand how you want to search for an array element that corresponds to a scalar DBL value of 0.1. Your array elements are NOT DBLs but dynamic data, each containing many signals!
There are two elements on all your data that are "3", the rest are zero. You will never find anything that is 0.1.
Maybe you can convert your original dynamic data to a 2D array with "rows are signals" using "convert from dynamic data", then operate on the 2D array.

Sorry, Please explain.
Please make a VI containing a simple 2D aray as diagram constant that contains e.g. 5x5 typical values. Let us know what kind of result you expect from your algorithm..

  • Hide a row or column for characteristic value # in Query Designer

    Hi gurus,
    I would if we could hide a result row / column if one of the characteristic value is #. The requirement is actually to remove the meaningless row / column from the whole result set. For example, I have a char Material Group in the column. Since not every Material is assigned to a Material Group, I will get the following layout:
    Material_Group A
    Material_Group B
    Material_Group C
    Is it possible to define in query designer so that the column with # will automatically not be displayed?
    Thanks,
    Meng

    Hi Meng,
    I guess we have the same users..
    But there is one thing that is going to make a non sense on the report: if you do not display the "#" for material group, then the total of your query by material group will not be the summation of what is displayed on the screen...and if the user explort the information in Excel (pretty sure they will do so), you will have some calls that your query does not balance....
    Based on that assumption, tell the users to assign a material group to the materials, so that this unassigned column disappears. You could even give them a control report listing all the parts that do not have a material group
    If this is a standard business rule not to have a material group for all parts, then, what you could do is to change the text for empty rows for Material group, then the "#" will disappear and wil be under the text description you defined.
    But keep in mind that your data is made of materials which do not have a material group in their definition, noraml or not ?

  • Hi, how can i break the value for a row and column once i have converted the image to the array?????​??

    Hi, I would like to know how can i break the value for a row and column once i have converted the image to the array. I wanted to make some modification on the element of the array at a certain position. how can i do that?
    At the moment (as per attachhment), the value of the new row and column will be inserted by the user. But now, I want to do some coding that will automatically insert the new value of the row and the column ( I will use the formula node for the programming). But the question now, I don't know how to split the row and the column. Is it the value of i in the 'for loop'? I've  tried to link the 'i' to the input of the 'replace subset array icon' , but i'm unable to do it as i got some error.
    Please help me!
    For your information, I'm using LABView 7.0.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.Sorry for the confusion.
    I manage to change the array element by changing the row and column value. But, what i want is to allow the program to change the array element at a specified row and column value, where the new value is generated automatically by the program.
    Atatched is the diagram. I've detailed out the program . you may refer to the comments in the formula node. There are 2 arrays going into the loop. If a >3, then the program will switch to b, where if b =0, then the program will check on the value of the next element which is in the same row with b but in the next column. But if b =45, another set of checking will be done at a dufferent value of row and column.
    I hope that I have made the problem clear. Sorry if it is still confusing.
    Hope you can help me. Thank you!!!!

  • Reading each value from spreadshee​t file with delay (multiple rows and columns)

    Hi,
    a) I want to read EACH VALUE from a spreadsheet file having multiple rows and columns WITH DELAY. I am attaching my VI and sample datalog file for reference (tempsensor.txt).I need to do so because as soon as I read put ON the Sensor button on front panel, LV reads all the values at one go. I need the values for each temperature to be displayed after a delay.
    b) Secondly, I would like to read another file containing the state of four antennas (deployed:1; undeployed:0). I am logging state of each antenna in each column of the file(magnet.txt) I need to have four LEDS on front panel to display state of the antennas. I dont know what I have done for antennas in my VI is right or wrong. I guess thats rhe wrong way to approach the problem. Please help!!!(column1: Antenna1 state ; Column2:Antenna2 state.. and so..on..)
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
    Thanks in advance,
    Ratnesh
    FYI: The first column in my datalog file represents timestamp(number of seconds elapsed), second column: reading for temperature sensor 1, third column: reading for temperature senosr 2, and so on. I am using approx. 11 temperature sensors.
    Also, I have generated the log files for the reference purpose only. They do not represent the actual values. They are far away from actual values.

  • I need to take elements from within 2 nested for loops and place them in an array at the specific row and column that I need.

    I have tried intializing an array and replacing elements by specifying a particular row, and column, but in the end I get an array with only one element replaced, and I suspect that it is because as the for loops are running through their iterations each time the array is re-initializing. I have a simple vi that I will post below, it is not the exact situation that I have but is a good place for me to get some understanding. I have the row and column indexes being driven by the inner and outer loop iterations, which gives me the pattern I need. I am using the inner iterations as array elements. How do I set this up so that it works and d
    oes keep re-initializing my array.

    I have fixed a number of things in your vi.
    You were right in thinking that the array was continuously re-initialized. To avoid this, use a shift register (right-click the loop border), which will pass the updated array into the next iteration.

  • Setup for discoverer table for showing number of Rows and columns of Report

    As oracle discoverer report show "Rows 1-25 of"(Total rows) and "Column 1-6 Of"(Total Column).
    This total rows and columns information's is not appearing on our reports.
    Kindly let us know its setting/setups .
    This is very urgent to us, Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks, Avaneesh

    Hmm, what version of Discoverer are you on? Do I understand you correctly that you are able to run a Discoverer report and see this rows and columns information? What software are you running when you do this - Viewer, Plus, or Desktop? Where is this showing up - the top of the report maybe? Or maybe the bottom of the report? The only thing I can think of to handle this is the Page Setup for a workbook, and looking at the Header and Footer sections of that setup. But I am on Discoverer 10.1.2.2 and I don't see anything I can insert on the header/footer that would show this kind of information. Desktop will let you do Page x of y pages (Plus does not), but that is not what you are seeing. You can maybe look at the page setup and see if there is something there not documented in the Discoverer guides.

  • Summing the Rows and Columns in an Array

    I am importing a 2-dimensional array of integers.(which is held in a 2-dimensional array)
    I need to store the row sums and column sums in separate 1-dimensional arrays.
    I can get the integers in and print out a list along with the grand total(sum of all).
    But, how do I pass each row's and each column's value in to my sumRow and sumCol methods to get the sum for each row and each column?
    Can I do the row and column summing in the same "for" statement where I calculate the "grand total"? Or am I making this more difficult than it is?
    Would appreciate any help.
    This is what I have so far:
    import java.awt.Graphics;
    import java.applet.Applet;

    Thanks for your input.
    I'll make the changes that you suggest.(after this)

    4 6 3 8 21
    9 1 5 3 18
    13 7 8 11 39
    numbers are right, but I need to format the table
    the output needs to look like this:
    int int int int | rowsum
    int int int int | rowsum
    colsum colsum colsum colsum | total

    Hi Vicky Liu,
    Thank you for your reply. I'm sorry for not clear question.
    Answer for your question:
    1. First value of Open is item fiels in Dataset2 and this value only for first month (january). But for other month Open value get from Close in previous month.
    * I have 2 Dataset , Dataset1 is all data for show in my report. Dataset2 is only first Open for first month
    2. the picture for detail of my report
    Detail for Red number:
    1. tb_Open -> tb_Close in previous month but first month from item field in Dataset2
    espression =FormatNumber(Code.GetOpening(Fields!month.Value,First(Fields!open.Value, "Dataset2")))
    2. tb_TOTAL1 group on item_part = 1
    expression =FormatNumber(Sum(CDbl(Fields!budget.Value)))
    3. tb_TOTAL2 group on item_part = 3 or item_part = 4

    4. tb_TOTAL3 group on item_part = 2
    expression =FormatNumber(Sum(CDbl(Fields!budget.Value)) - ReportItems!tb_TOTAL2 .Value)
    5. tb_Close -> calculate from tb_TOTAL3 - tb_Open
    expression =FormatNumber(Code.GetClosing(ReportItems!tb_TOTAL3.Value,ReportItems!tb_Open.Value))
    I want to calculate the value of tb_Open and tb_Close. I try to use custom code for calculate them. tb_close is correct but tb_Open is not correct that show value = 0 .
    My custom code:
    Dim Shared prev_close As Double
    Dim Shared now_close As Double
    Dim Shared now_open As Double
    Public Function GetClosing(TOTAL3 as Double,NowOpening as Double)

  • Setting number of rows and columns

    How do I set the number of rows and columns of a table, say 2348 rows by 3 columns?
    Then how do I quickly select the last row?
    Also, if I enter a formula in row 1 column 2, how do I quickly copy that formula down to row 1435, or to the end of the column? Dragging seems slow and awkward.

    I wish to add a few words to Jerrold responce.

    The process that you describe is inefficient.
    The efficient one is :
    create a table
    enter the formulas in a single row
    delete the rows below.
    Now, each newly inserted row will contain the formulas.
    From my point of view, it's when this is done that it will be interesting to apply a script adding rows.
    Here is a script inserting rows.
    --[SCRIPT insertRows]
    Enregistrer le script en tant que Script : insertRows.scpt
    déplacer le fichier ainsi créé dans le dossier
    <VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
    Il vous faudra peut-être créer le dossier Numbers et peut-être même le dossier Applications.
    Sélectionner une cellule au-dessous de laquelle vous voulez insérer des lignes.
    menu Scripts > Numbers > insertRows
    Le script vous demande le nombre de lignes désiré puit insère celles-ci.
    --=====
    L'aide du Finder explique:
    L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
    Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
    Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".
    --=====
    Save the script as a Script: insertRows.scpt
    Move the newly created file into the folder:
    <startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:Applications:Numbers:
    Maybe you would have to create the folder Numbers and even the folder Applications by yourself.
    Select a cell below which you want to insert rows.
    menu Scripts > Numbers > insertRows
    The script ask you the number of rows to insert then it does the required insertion.
    --=====
    The Finder's Help explains:
    To make the Script menu appear:
    Open the AppleScript utility located in Applications/AppleScript.
    Select the "Show Script Menu in menu bar" checkbox.
    Save this script as a … Script in the "Folder Actions Scripts" folder

  • Programmactic Access DataGrid Rows and Columns

    Hello,
    I am new to ActionScript. Can you tell me how can I access
    the rows and columns of a data grid?
    What I want to do is that when the application load, I will
    populate the datagrid with the Xml returned from the webservice.
    After that, webservice will be called periodically (using timer)
    and the information in the datagrid needs to be updated. The cells
    which are updated need to be highlighted.
    The datagrid actually contains the stock market data (symbol
    name and its other attributes). So once the datagrid has been
    populated on application creation, it contains all the symbols in
    the market. After that, only attributes of the symbols will change,
    like price, volume etc. What I want is that once the datagrid is
    populated, i can access the row by using the value of symbol code
    and then update the appropriate columns of that symbol. (Xml from
    next time will contain only symbols whose values change from last
    time).
    Below is the code that I have written so far.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <mx:Application xmlns:mx="

    private function OnAppCreationComplete() : void

    To achieve what you want, I would have two functions:
    * One populates the DataGrid for the first time, i.e. the
    inital load
    * The other does the 'update' on each interval, since there's
    logic required
    To update the DataGrid with only the rows that have changed,
    you're going to have to compare
    the incoming XML to the existing XML in the dataProvider of
    the DataGrid, then selectively update the dataProvider.
    You can use the
    getItemAt() and
    setItemAt() methods of the data provider to check each row
    against the incoming data. So, some example code:
    // This is the function which handles the result of your
    'updated data only' webservice
    private function handleUpdateInvoke (event:ResultEvent) :
    void {
    var incoming:XML = new XML(event.result);
    var someList:XMLList = incoming.somePattern;
    // For each data provider item, check the key and if it
    matches
    // one of the incoming keys, update it at that index
    var numRows = this.dgTopPosts.dataProvider.length;
    var existingDataRow:*
    for (var i:Number = 0; i < numRows; i++) {
    existingDataRow = this.dgTopPosts.dataProvider.getItemAt(i);
    for each (var newDataRow:* in someList) {
    if (existingDataRow.SymbolID == newDataRow.SymbolID) {
    this.dgTopPosts.dataProvider.setItemAt(newDataRow, i);
    }

  • JTable - Swapping the Rows and Columns

    This issue was raised in the Java Programming forum. Received initially as a weird requirement, it now seems that it is more common than you might think. Under it's original title it was "JTable - Limitation or Not?"
    I introduced the topic here so that the thread perspective can include more experienced Swing developers.
    The JTable in it's default layout is intended to hold database tables with records in rows. But what if you want records in columns?
    Some have said why? Just accept the row layout. Others have said use a customised form. Both reasonable views. Despite this, others report that the inherrited power of the JTable is worth leveraging and they have been doing it for years. Albeit with messy code in certain cases.
    This is a clear candidate for a popular derived component. If the existing JTable were renamed as a JTableRecordPerRow I am describing a JTableRecordPerColumn. The corresponding Table Model must naturally have a getRowClass method and no getColumnClass method.
    Java is good at seperating data from display issues so essentially this is only a display issue. The data representation is unaffected.
    While this may be so, the TableModel for a JTable makes the link from the display to the data so it must have knowledge about cell type to trigger the correct cell editor for example.
    I think it is fair to say that the standard JTable has not be designed with alternative row/column or column/row displays in mind. Hence a single getColumnClass method. However implementing a Table model which exchanges columns for rows is a good start. This leaves a few loose ends where editting is concerned.
    While this may not be an ideal topic for anyone just learning Swing I have been encouraged to consider the general case within the limitations of the cell types normally supported by the default Table model.
    I would have a guess that this is an established component in many private Java libraries already.
    Views and experience on this topic extremely welcome.

    It appears to me that while interchanging the rows and columns of a JTable is not trivial it is still worthwhile as a workhorse component.
    Perhaps the original design could have allowed for an aternative layout manager of somekind but this could easily have made description of records/rows and fields/columns confusing.
    I will probably get this summary wrong but I aill attempt to collate the neatest approach as I see it. Criticisms or shorter steps welcome. My thanks to the original contributors traceable from this thread.
    In the descriptions below a distinction is made between the normal internal data model representation of a row, called "mrow", and the displayed form "row".
    Only the TableModel need be changed.
    1 Use row 0 to show the headers by a)disabling the normal TableHeader renderer b)setting the cell renderer for column 0 to the default renderer used by the TableHeader and c)using the getValueAt method to return mcol header values for the row entries.
    2 For other row, col values to getValueAt return the value at mcol, mrow where mcol==row-1 & mrow==col.
    3 Create a new getCellClass(col,row) method to return the class where mrow==0 and mcol==row-1. Note that I am only trying to immitate the common use of of a database record per mrow here.
    4 Override a)getCellRenderer and b)getCellEditor to use getCellClass
    Four steps with seven parts seems worth it to me.
    The power of Swing!
    Many thanks to all.
