TDMS File Creates Multiple Tabs of Data. Want to create only one.

Hello NI Community,
I am currently using the DAQ Assistant with my string pots to record displacement over a long interval of time (see attached VI). I am then using the "Write To Measurement File" vi to save the data into a TDMS file (see the "Write to File Settings" picture attached for all settings chosen for file write). The file is being written, however when I open the TDMS file, the document creates a tab in Excel for every second of data recorded (please see the attached "). It looks like the TDMS file is grouping all the data from each second together and then creating a new group of data.
How do I get the file to write all the data onto a single tab instead of creating multiple? I do not want to have to concatenate hundreds of tabs into a single excel sheet.
Thanks,
Chris

How to create a variance on data that exists iIn only one database column

How to create a variance on data that exists iIn only one database column?
I'm trying to create a calculation to show the difference between the budgets for two different years in a Discoverer crosstab query.
I'm using the lag function to repeat the value of a column for the current year and the year before.

Lag and lead seems to be the only choice and they work excellent. Checkout the new 10g Database features. There is new SQL modal clause which might give additional and powerful analytics but in this case lag and lead should be sufficient.

Create Multiple Signature and Date fields with a custom Toolbar Button

First off, thanks in advance! I am a scripting newbie and I am trudging my way through with very little experience with scripting of any kind. I am good at taking other's scripts and forming them into something I need, but I can't seem to find anything to do what I want.
Using Adobe Acrobat X, I am trying to create a toolbar button that I can press to create multiple signature and date fields with predetermined locations.
Below is the script I have that is working to create just a single signature box, but I can't seem to figure out the exact syntax to have that same button create multiple fields. In total it is 9 signature fields and 9 date fields need to be created. If you can just give me an example of what the button would look like with multiple scripts? I was assuming I would set up multiple variables and then in the cExec property of the toolbar button I could just call out all of those variables?
var sigswm = "addField('sigSWM', 'signature', '0', [108, 198, 494.64, 72])"
app.addToolButton({cName: "dotbutton", cExec: sigswm, cLabel: "Place Signature and Date Blocks",});
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
Billy Sweeney

Thanks! That was probably the only thing I didn't try.
I do have one more question. What I want is when the signature field is clicked it fills out a specific date field. I beleive the script I want would be:
var currentTime = new Date()
    var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1
    var day = currentTime.getDate()
    var year = currentTime.getFullYear()
    var signingTime = day +"/"+month+"/"+year
    var f = this.getField("dateSWM");
    f.value = signingTime;
I found this on another thread that mentioned it could be placed in the Signed tab of the signature properties dialog. I am assuming it would be placed in my button script file as a setAction script for each signature, but I am not real sure exactly where or how?

Lost ability to create multiple tabs

I've been able to create multiple tabs by clicking the "plus" sign at the right of the current tab. Haven't been able to do that for some reason. I usually create several tabs so I can view several sites by clicking any tab.

Yes, just recently upgraded, so I got confused about the QT/FCP movie.
Thank you.
In terms of the print to tape, I selected the file and went print to tape from
the created QT movie. Only small problem were two very small audio pops
on the tape that don't exist on the QT movie. Could it be a dirty deck head
or is there something I'm not doing?
Either way, thank you both for your help.

Problem while creating multiple tabs dynamically webdynpro abap

Hi Experts,
i am trying to create multiple tabs in tabstrip dynamically but the tabs are hiding behind one other..
Let me know how to fix this.
Thanks
Abdul Hakim

Are you expecting from expert only?Sorry I am not a expert,
About issue:...
I think number of tabs will display that depends on the width of the container.. As of now how many tabs you have and hw many displaying at a time...
Please increase width ofyour container and check and let me know.
Its just a try not a solution.

Clicking a link sometimes creates multiple tabs (50 - 75) and then cant quit app.

When clicking on a new link Firefox creates multiple tabs (as many as 50 or more) and will not permit the app to quite. After I force quit and reopening Firefox same multiple tabs load again.

See [[Firefox keeps opening many tabs or windows]]

That is a quirk of Pagesthat it applies only one record per page.

How can I create multiple accounts without the necessity to create multiple email addresses? I now have 2 i-phones (mine and my wife's), 1 i-pad (mine), 1 i-pad mini (10 year old's), and 1 I-pod touch (11 year old's). I would like to maintain purchase control, but would like to be able to have a separate account ID for each person. Is that possible?

Each email address can only be on one iTunes account, and all purchases are tied to the account that buys them. If you want to have separate iTunes accounts on each then you will need separate email accounts for each iTunes account

Hi c3 cyber club,
Unfortunately FormCentral and Echosign are two different services and forms created in Forms central can only be submitted via and to Forms Central.
We cannot have the form filled in using FormCentral and get it signed using Echosign.
However, you can use Echosign directly and you can get most of the functionality.

When i change, create cycle (ksu1),I donot want to create transport request

when i change, create cycle (ksu1)
i donot want to create transport request ?
when i change/create cycle(KSU1,KSU2) i just want to change/create cycle.
i donot want to configure about cycle.
what should i do ?

Hi dittaporn
If you want to change whether your customization should create transport request or not you go in Tcode SCC4.Here you select your client for which you want to make changes and select NO CHANGES ALLOWED .After doing this setting, system will not create request pop up box.but i would suggest, you must ask your system administrator ( Basis people) before make any changes.
Hope this helps you and if found useful assign points.

HP Photosmart all in one C309a printing multiple copies when its set to print only one copy.

having issues with my C309a its now printing multiple copys when its set to print only one copy.it started doing this 4 days ago and its happening on both my Windows 7 64 bit computer and my Vista 32 computer that both have the latest release drivers already installed need help.HP please sort this issue out.still under warranty do i have to return it?

I am using a Motorola SBG900 Wirless Surfboard Gateway - supplied with Bigpond Cable. It is set to be using WPA security and have never had a problem with it before whilst connecting any wireless devices such as a laptop, PDA etc.
My feeling is that the wireless functionality of this printer needs some serious work before the next release. And furthermore they should never have released it the way it is as it wouldn't pass 5% of user acceptance tests if using wireless. There are too many complaints on this forum and others about similar problems to suggest that I am not by myself here. Dissapointing considering this is the feature that would be at the top of the list of most purchasing this model. It lets down what could of been a vg printer.
I agree, I think if I want to get this printer working on a wirless network, I will have to set the IP address manually. The problem is the printer refuses to connect to the router now even after it connected a few days ago with no intervention. I have powered down both the router, PC, and printer without any luck yet. I will set the IP address manually first on the printer and see how it goes, then if it connects will see if the PC/router can see the printer during the SW install procedure which has failed >10 times to date.
For now I think I will stick with Ethernet as it is no doubt much faster anyway and will try the wirless setup again in a few days when my patience grows back. Does anyone know differences in speed between USB/Wireless/Ethernet? I know this is dependant on a number of things but just interested in ball park figures here.

Script to auto zero channels in a TDM file with multiple channel groups

Hi friends,
I am trying to process some data but am having trouble modifying a script to autozero channels across multiple channel groups. The following script works to zero channels across one group. I use this script to process data in a TDM file with only one channel group. I need to be able to zero channels across multiple groups (5 groups). But the amount of groups I will have may change so I might need an option to enter the amount of groups or have the script determine the amount of groups in my TDM file.
Here is the code I use to zero the data. Thanks in advance for your help!
Sub UserDlg_Select
Call USERDLGINIT()
USERDLGCAPTION="Auto Zero Channel Based on Specified Points "
USERDLGTXT(5)="Number of points to Average"
USERDLGCOMMAND(5)="t1"
Call USERDLGOPEN()
End Sub
Call UserDlg_Select()
T2="1-"&T1
For I= 1 To ChnNoMax 'For all data channels except time
T4=CHNNAME(I) 'Create string for Channel name (I)
T3=ChnDim(T4) 'Create text variable for channel dimension
STATSEL(6)="Yes" 'Arith mean
STATCLIPCOPY="yes"
STATCLIPVALUE="No"
Call StatBlockCalc("Channel",T2,T4) 'Calculate Stats for Channel (I)
'Subtract Mean of first (T1) points for Channel (I)
Call FormulaCalc("Ch('temp1') := CH('"&T4&"') - statarithmean")
CHNCOMMENT("temp1")=("Channel zeroed over first "&T1)+"pts" 'Add Comment
ChnDim("temp1")=T3 'Add Dimension
CHNNAME("temp1")=T4+"-Z" 'Save updated data with -Z
'Delete Stat Channels
Call CHNDEL("ArithmeticMean")
Call CHNDEL("Sum")
Next 'End For loop

Hi rvillalta319,
Sounds like you'll need to adapt your code to use both a for loop and some implementation of the GroupCount variable (or ChannelGroups.Count) as seen here:
