What product(s) should I use to replace Measure?

Hello,
I have a customer who has been using Measure in Excel to communicate with GPIB and possibly DAQ devices. He has been experiencing unstability with Measure and is interested in moving away to another product. Which product(s) would provide the simplest transition? I'm interested in any feedback/ideas you may have.

Much of what Measure does today can be pretty easily still accomplished from within Excel using the macro editor although it does require that you write some code to do it instead of using the interactivity that Measure provides.  Measure includes a conversion utility that will convert a Measure task to Excel VBA which leverages some of the ActiveX controls from Measurement Studio.  Alternatively you could use Excel VBA (or in newer versions of Excel, .NET) directly with our language interfaces for DAQ and GPIB.  Again, this would require some amount of programming in Excel.  We also have examples which show how to acquire data using LabVIEW and then send that data to a spreadsheet.

  • What Production Method Should I use

    We sell products to customers the following way :
    We recieve an order - create a PO.
    The item is usually a BOM, i.e. A steel plate with holes drilled.
    We create a PO for the Steel PLate from supplier 1 and order them to ship to Supplier 2 (Engineering Firm).
    We issue a PO to supplier 2 to drill holes in the plate and order them to ship the plate to the customer.
    How do I get B1 to automatically create the purchase orders to make this work as we do not actually keep any stock or really touch the product through the process.
    How should I set up my items and manage the sales / production orders etc ... ?
    Thanks.
    Nick

    Using Drop-ship warehouse is very much unavoidable in this case. And Back to back PO can also be opted for.
    Any way .... for the Subcontracting, though there is no direct fitment in SAP B1, the following workaround can be tried -
    Sol 1:
    Production Order (for the Item, which is subcontracted) + Service Type Purchase Order to Purchase Invoice (for the Service Charge by the subcontractor)
    Here : The the subcontracting charge can't be included into BOM.
    Sol 2:
    Production Order (for the Item, which is subcontracted) + Item Type Purchase Order to Purchase Invoice (for the Service Charge by the subcontractor, but the charge is created as non-inventory Item, but not as Labor Type Item)
    >>Here in the next solution the Item's accounts mapping will be different than the other inventory Item.
    >>The Subcontracting Service Charge item will be Buy type in planning method.

  • What type of hard drive replacement should i use to replace the hard drive in my first generation mac min 2005 model a 1103?

    what type of hard drive replacement should I use to replace the hard drive on my first generation mac mini model a 1103?   G4 1.25 mhz 40 gb hd 1 gb. mem.

    You'll need a 2.5" parallel ATA interface hard drive. Most are 5400RPM, forget 7200RPM drives and slower 4200rpm drives.  You don't want a serial ATA (SATA) drive, as that has a different connector and won't work.
    One source I've used for drives is Newegg, and their parallel ATA hard drives are at http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=100007605%2060000344 2&IsNodeId=1&name=IDE%20Ultra%20ATA100%20%2f%20ATA-6 .  Newegg also has many user comments about the drives. Other sources are OWC at http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/ (Click on ATA on the left) . Look for at least a 3 year warranty.

  • HT201788 What speed disks should i use in an Apple Superdrive

    What speed disks should i use in an Apple Superdrive?
    Thanks

    It matters little. The slower the burn speed, i.e. 2x or 4x, the better the burn.
    What is important is the brand of media: most of here recommend Verbatim, Maxell and Taiyo Yuden.

  • What sequence setting should I use for a High Quality Video Montage?

    I am about to start a new project for a client using photographs only.  I have two questions:
    1.  What should I use for the sequence settings?  Should I edit with a HD sequence setting? 
    2.  I am going to scan the pics myself.  What Pixel or resolution is appropriate to get the best quality?  I'm looking for wide screen 16 x 9, not 3 x 4.

    First, decde how you are going to deliver this production to your client. Then tell us what that delivery medium will be. Then we'll have some advice for you.
    See the section in the FCP manual on using still images. You need to understand that in video there are only pixels, no dots per inch or lines per inch. Those terms are meaningless in video. You wil sand at a size in raw pixels that is only slightly larger than your delivery format.

  • What email program should I use?

    I have Safari 1.3.2 which I assume is the final upgrade for 10.3. I changed my browser to Firefox because of some of the problems with Safari. I was a long user of Netscape, including their email program. I want to keep Panther as my operating system. Should I use the Safari 1.3.2 for email? Want would you recommend for email, something different?

    Hi again,
    Yes, the Navigator Composer/Mail bundle... it's a good one if you like it. Has a lot of extra's to it. If you want to check out others, have you tried the one that comes with MacOSX? It's simply called Mail. It's the one I use now... it's simple, has some extra's and is all I need. Some like Microsoft Entourage which comes with the new Mac as a trial and is bundled with the Microsoft Office Suite... if you have that bundle. I find it has much more then I want to be a simple program, maybe some office types could use all that stuff, but I don't.
    Camino is just a browser. SeaMonkey is the Mac version of Netscape... it has all the elements of Navigator... composer, mail, browser and with all the same icons... it is just more Mac-Friendly then Navigator can be. This one would be worth a look if you are used to Netscape (since Netscape is now without support and has been acquired by AOL), and SeaMonkey is still going and improving.
    A stand alone mail program called ThunderBird on the Mozilla web-site is also an alternative if you want something different to try out. I have given it a look, but again it has too many bells and elements for my simple use style.
    So, I have grown used to Mail which is a natural for this Mac... works well, simple and yet some bell's to enhance with. But, you, can now give some others a look/feel and see what you think.
    Enjoy

  • What File Extension Should I Use

    I'm new to websites.  I have been adding documents to our organizations website (thesoba.com).  Usually I will use pdf documents, but one of the documents (points) is taking a long time to load. That document keeps getting bigger and bigger each month.  I think that it's loading about 18 pages.   I know I have a lot of files on the website that I don't use and need to clean those up.  We have sponsor logo's and past history that we want to keep and possibly use in future years.  I need to those to a backup or another folder.  What is the best way to know what files are currently in use on the website.
    Thanks

    First off ignore that other guy.  Looks to be a new spam bot.  They appear every so often on forums.
    More than likely if they are just from a scanner they are not optimized.  I'm not sure if PDF is right or wrong.  Best way to tell is to look at the type of data you are trying to store.  If you show me one of the PDFs I would be willing to look at it for you and see whether it is something with optimization or if there is a better way to store the data.  If you are worried about publicly posting one of the documents, we could work through email (I would provide address through that).
