.txt file extension

Labview automatically saves a text file as a readable text file but it has no .txt or .text file extension on.  Is there a way in which you can make labview save a file automatically with a .txt file extension so it can be opened directly by notepad.  Rather than having to choose aprogram to open it with every time I try to access one of the files.
Thanks,
Matt.
Solved!

gilgad2000,
It depends on your VI. If you are using the "Path Control" tool, you can open its "Browse Options" and write .txt at the Pattern box.
If you are not using it, you can also concatenate a ".txt" string at the end of the file path (use "Strip Path", "Concatenate Strings" and "Build Path" functions) just before using it on the saving function.

  • What is going on here? .txt file extension

    I apologize for asking this question, but at the risk of sounding completely fried, here goes...
    I've saved my program in Notepad with the .java file extension, but when I run dir command in DOS, the file ends with the .txt file extension (i.e. HelloWorld.java.txt). Could someone give me a clue how to keep Notepad from automatically ending my program with this .txt file extension.? I've have not encountered this problem before.
    Thanks

    Thanks for your help.
    I figured out that I didn't have the .java file extension defined in Windows. Because Notepad didn't recognize .java as a valid file type, it would automatically assign the .txt after my program files.
    To fix this...
    1.) Start Explorer
    2.) Select the View...Options... file menu
    3.) Click on the File Types tab
    4.) Click on the New Type... button
    5.) Enter the following in the Description of type: edit box: Java Files
    6.) Enter the following in the Associated extension edit box: .java
    7.) Click OK
    8.) Click OK
    Thanks for your responses.

  • Custom File Extension for Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv)

    I'm trying to use a custom file extension for the Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv) driver.
    I have updated the FileExtns registry to have my new extension.
    When I issue the following it does not work.
    select [NoName] 
    from openrowset('MSDASQL'
               ,'Driver={Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv)};
                    DefaultDir=c:\filedir'
               ,'select * from "file.lst"')
    If I make the file a .csv it works fine.  However, if it has an extension of not CSV or TXT (in this case .lst, which is in the registry setting) extension it throws the following error and cannot seem to find a solution to it. 
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Text Driver] Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.". Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Cannot get the column information from
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "(null)".
    In addition, (although I can probably find this elsewhere), I need to have the first line 'BLANK' so that it does not miss data (there is no header row).  Is there  a way to use OPENROWSET without BULK to basically include all rows as data?
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    According to your description, I did a test with your script, and got the same message as your post. Usually, by default, the Microsoft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv) supports the four extensions file, such as *.asc, *.csv, *.tab, *.txt. To solve this issue,
    I recommend you try to save the LST file in the above format, then use OPENROESET to get data from the supported extensions file in SQL Server.
    In addition, the
    OPENROWSET function is mainly used to retrieve remote data from an OLEDB data source, when you use OPENROWSET without BULK, provider_name is a necessary parameter in the script. However, the OPENROWSET (BULK...) is mainly called from a SELECT…FROM clause
    within an INSERT statement, when importing bulk data from a data file into SQL Server table. Thus if you need to import bulk data, you should use the basic  syntax: INSERT ... SELECT * FROM OPENROWSET(BULK...), also there are some alternatives, such as
    BULK INSERT
    and
    BCP .
    Thanks

  • How to open and edit "*.txt" file with "Notepad"

    Hello guys!
    I'm facing problem with SharePoint 2010 Enterprise and got no clue how to solve it.
    What I want to do is to open "*.txt" (which is placed to "Documents Library") in "Notepad", so I could edit it and save (publish) directly to SharePoint from "Notepad".
    If I upload any Microsoft office File, such as "*.docx", "*.xls", etc - it works as it should - document opens in appropriate application and everybody is happy.
    But, when I create documents library, put some "*.txt" file there and click on it - it opens in new browser's tab as text, so I cannot edit the file.
    What I tried to do is to activate feature "Open Documents in Client Applications by Default" - not happy.
    Edit "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML\DOCICON.XML" - I've modified "txt" entry as follows:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <DocIcons>
        <ByProgID>
        </ByProgID>
        <ByExtension>
    <Mapping Key="txt" Value="ictxt.gif" EditText="Notepad" OpenControl="SharePoint.OpenDocuments"/>
        </ByExtension>
        <Default>
            <Mapping Value="icgen.gif"/>
        </Default>
    </DocIcons>
    Still not happy.
    So, how do I make this stuff work?

    Found this link which has more information on this scenario:

    Mike,
    you were right, you may not specify the extension of a file.
    Another thing i detected is that the loop of my data start with the index 1 instead of 0 !!!
    In this scenario, i have to read all the lines of the file and each time i should do a SQL-query,
    so that i can use the result to build my sales document.
    Do you know if it this is possible or have you any idea how to do this ?
    thx,
    Mario

  • Create txt file at runtime

    I'm working on a biological database. People see the data via jsp pages. Now at runtime a very long string is created depending on the needs of the user. This data is derived from different tables and the output string can be up to 5000 characters. Now this output can be used by the user as input for several biological research applications. Now I can create this string at runtime and can print it in a jsp page. But it would be easier for the users if this string would be written at runtime to a txt file(or an extension supported by these applications). So that users only have to press a button, there will be a txt file created and opened in a different browser window (or maybe better would be a dialog box with the choice to save to disk or to open), so that people can easily save it and later on import this file in their applications rather than have to copy the string from a jsp page and paste it in a text editor. How can I do this???
    Thanx,
    Lieven

    Ok I did some research by myself and discovered to set the contenType to application/octet-stream. The problem is now that the extension of the output file is still jsp. So how can I change this to the filename and extension of my choice???
    thanx,
    Lieven

  • DW CS3 - custom file extension no longer working correctly

    Hi - for a particular job, I needed to use a custom file
    extension .htmx and it has been working fine.
    However, I went into DW CS3 today, and the file opens in the
    DW editor, but the code coloring and code hints etc seem to be
    broken.
    I've checked the Extensions.txt and MMDocumentTypes.xml
    files, and all seems present and correct - see
    this screencast to
    see the problem.
    Any ideas why it's not working? (I'm on Vista Business, but
    it has definitely been working and now isn't....)
    Mike

    Well, I managed to fix it by overwriting my
    MMDocumentTypes.xml file with a clean version from another machine.
    Weird.

  • Thousands of individual .txt files being created while using "next available file name" option in Save to ASCII step

    I'm using Signal Express to record Load vs Displacement data and export it to a format our engineers can work with (in this case ASCII is okay). It would seem that by selecting the Next Available File Name from the drop down arrow it would do just that. For instance a typical save path for me would look like C:\....Desktop\Project Number and Description\Run_1.txt within that Run1.txt file would be all the data points for that run. When I hit record again Signal Express would (SHOULD) create a Run_2 since it's the Next Available File Name.
    But instead what it does is creates a single txt file for every single sample point being read. Needless to say, If I'm recording 6 second of data at 1khz I end up with thousands of txt files!
    The first thing that comes to mind is, why would anyone want this?
    Second is how can I record multiple individal runs for the same project and have the file name increment?

  • File extensions and other formats

    I'm having trouble with file extensions when saving AW files in other formats. I suspect it may have to to do with a recent upgrade to 10.5
    I have (as recommended in the forum) deleted the AW plist files, but it didn't help.
    Here are the symptoms:
    1. When saving, "Hide extensions" is always checked. I remember it as always being unchecked (which I prefer) . Unchecking it every time is getting annoying.
    2. If I uncheck Hide Extensions, I can save as an AW file with its cwk extension, no problem
    3. If I change the File Format to something else, like Text, then the Hide Extension box (which I had previously unchecked) is now checked again. The previous cwk extension disappears, but the period remains.
    4. If I then uncheck Hide Extensions, a second period appears.
    5. If I try to get rid of the extra periods and add txt so that the file is filename.txt, I get an error message that says I can't use the extension ".txt", and that the required extension is "." Using both leaves me with "filename.txt."
    6. The only solution has been to let it save with Hide Extension checked, then go into the finder, use Get Info to unhide the extension, and then save it with the correct extension, which is getting to be a real pain in the patoot.
    Help, anyone? I'm ready to downgrade back to 10.4.
    RJ

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Downgrading to 10.4 won't help much. The problem lies in AppleWorks being a Classic application that was carbonized to run in OS X. It just doesn't "understand" extensions. Although adding the period in Leopard is new, the problem with the error messages when you save an AppleWorks document as text or Word & add the appropriate extension is not new. I've given up & just add the correct extension in Finder.

  • Using an * for all file extensions in a class selection parser

    Using iFS 1.1.9....
    I have successfully gotten a custom document class created using

    If I use a specific file extension like txt the parser will
    upload the file as my custom class. However, if I use * for all
    file extensions the parser uploads all files as Document class.
    Here is what I am using:

    If I have txt or some other extension for the Name in place of
    the * and upload a document it will put the class as
    QualDocument. If I have the * it defaults to Document.
    Is there a way to have the parser make all uploaded documents
    QualDocument instead of Document without doing this for each and
    every possible file extension?

  • The Document Type "" will not be added because it uses a file extension that is already associated with a prior Document Type.

    I’ve removed the MMDocumentTypes.xml file from the folder Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2014 -> Configuration -> DocumentTypes and put it on the desktop. Also, I moved the Extensions.txt file the same way. After a restart, I get the same error message. I uninstalled every extension one by one in every place that I could find (Adobe Extension Manager/DMXzone Extension Manager/https://creative.adobe.com/my_addons), and I uninstalled and reinstalled Dreamweaver… I’m still getting that message. Please, tell me how I can get rid of this error message. It's driving me crazy!

    Hi Ken,
      Thanks for your reply. It all happened because of the DMXzone LESS CSS/LESS COMPILER products. When I first got CC2014 a few weeks ago, I went on a rampage downloading all the "cool" app extensions that I could find like most new CC users. That was a big mistake. Half of them don't load correctly, or they get errors. Download from the "add-ons" page at your own peril. After editing the MMDocumentTypes.xml and extensions.txt files to get rid of the original LESS definitions and redefining them, it loaded without the error, but the icons on the "Create New" section of the welcome screen were gone. I completely deleted Dreamweaver again, and this time I included all preferences. After a clean install with no preference files or extensions, I got it working properly. I have to say that the Dreamweaver cloud sync feature in CC saved a ton of time because it had my site definitions waiting for me. Stay out of the DMXzone, if you don't want to be in the damage control zone. =)

  • [JS] Need Help Removing File extension (in CS2 and CS3)

    Hello All.
    I have a menu in a dialog that needs to list some file names, but without their file extensions (which will always be .txt in my case). The following is some code that successfully does this in CS3, but I also need it to work in CS2. Do you have any other ways to do this? One code that works in both versions (CS2 and CS3) is ideal.
    myNameWithoutExtensionFunction = function( myNameWithExtention ) {
    myNameWithoutExtension = myNameWithExtention
    myEndOfFileName = myNameWithoutExtension.lastIndexOf( "." )   // get the last period (.) in the filename
    if ( myEndOfFileName > -1 ) {
      myNameWithoutExtension = myNameWithoutExtension.substr( 0, myEndOfFileName )
    return myNameWithoutExtension
    Thanks in advance.
    Dan

    I realized my mistake. The above code works just fine in CS2. My mistake was elsewhere. The name I was sending to this function wasn't being recognized by CS2. Once I corrected that and sent a valid name to this function it worked. So in case someone needs to remove file extensions, feel free to use the above function!

  • Change file extension in receiver file adapter

    File to File Scenario
    Posted: Sep 11, 2006 3:47 PM      Reply      E-mail this post 
    I am working on a File to File scenario.
    Source System gives out a file: abc ( with no extension)
    We need to archive it as: abc.done
    And we need to send it to a FTP server ( receiver File adapter) as abc.txt.
    How can I append a file extension when I archive and
    how can I change the file extension in the receiver File adapter?
    FYI, we are using XI as FTP server so I have created dummy message interface with no mapping.

    Hi,
    If I understood correctly once XI picks up the file it should be archieved as filename.doc and then it should be FTP'ed to a different location with a change in extension filename.txt.
    1. To Archive in the sender communication channel you can use OS Commands after prosessing (>=SP14) to rename the file and archive it. Suggested write a batch file which will rename the file and call the batch file from the OS Command of the sender file adapter. You can either use Archive functionaliy of the Sender adapter or you can write one more command in batch file to move the file to different folder. Make sure you are using fullpath while writing batch file.
    2. As said use dynamic configuration in a dummy mapping and then get the source file name and change the extension.
