Write to text file while scrolling table issue

Hi all,
I have a LabVIEW application that logs data using 'write to text file' every second. This is a bckground task in a sub-VI. On the main screen I have several tables that have scrollbars. Every time the file is written the scrolling of a table is effectivley canceled. It is then necessary to click on the scrollbar again to re-start scrolling the table. I guess this is an issue with the OS but not sure yet. I have not tested other operating systems yet. I thought I would try the forum first. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any ideas on how to fix this?
I have tried using list boxes instead of tables but the same issue exists.
I'm using windows 7 and LabVIEW 2011.
Thank you.

Hi Steve, thanks for offering to help. Right now I'm on a machine with LabVIEW 2010 and XP and the issue does not exist. But I have created a little test VI that should demonstrate the issue once running on LabVIEW 2011 SP1 and Windows 7. I can't confirm this VI will demonstrate the issue until later today when I can test it on the problem system myself. Feel free to give it a go and let us know what you find, or wait until I confirm the attached VI will demonsrate the issue (10 to 12 hrs time).
Thank again.

    Using external table u can load the data in your local table in database,

    Thanks in advance

    Chesat,
    You can not work for this requirement.You will have an idea on it.
    Introduction
    The use of FTP from ABAP seems to have been a hot topic on the ABAP Forums of late. I thought I might sit down and document whatever I could find on this subject and share it as a weblog.
    Over the years I have seen lots of different solutions for moving files on and off of a SAP system. I have seen external FTP scripts written in OS shell languages. I have seen full blown custom applications that are made to interface to the SAP system. However I think you will find that most of the technology you need to perform a simple FTP from ABAP is already contained in the standard system. All of my examples and screen shots will be coming from a 46C system.
    SAP's Solution
    If you have ever taken a look at the kernel directory of your SAP system, you might have noticed an interesting little executable: sapftp.exe (the name of the file on Windows SAP Kernels). It is this part of the Kernel that exposes FTP functionality to the ABAP Programming language.
    So you have a suspicion that there is FTP functionality in ABAP, but you’re not quite sure how to use it. Where do you start? I always turn to the Service Marketplace first. A quick search on SAPFTP reveals there is an entire component (BC-SRV-COM-FTP) on the subject. The most general note and our starting place is OSS Note 93042. This note starts off with a nice description of what SAPFTP is: A client RFC application that is accessed via RFC from ABAP. But we also find out that in addition to SAPFTP being part of the kernel, it is also part of the SAPGui. That means that we can perform FTP commands originating from our R/3 Server or from a Client Workstation.
    Well if this solution is accessed via RFC, then we must have to setup some RFC destinations. In fact we have two that we need; SAPFTP for Front-end FTP and SAPFTPA for access on the application server. Luckily we don't even have to mess with setting these RFC destinations up in SM59. SAP has supplied a program, RSFTP005, to generate the destinations for us.
    Now before we go off and start written code on our own to hit these FTP functions, why don't we make sure everything is setup and working. Once again SAP has helped us out by providing us with a test program, RSFTP002. (In case you are wondering the FTP functionality and many other test programs are all contained in SAP Development Class SFTP). When we run this test, we get a set input parameters for the server, username password, etc. We want to start out simple and just make sure we are getting a connection. Therefore we will just execute the pwd command (Print Working Directory).
    Your answer back should look something like this:
    If you are wanting to see a list of FTP commands, try using the command HELP in place of PWD:
    If something did go wrong during the test, I suggest that you active the trace option in SM59 for the FTP Destination. You can then use program RSFTP001 to display the current trace file.
    Programming the FTP
    Not only does the RSFTP002 program give us a test environment, but it also provides us with a programming example. We can see that the FTP functionality is really provided by a set of function modules all within the SFTP Function Group. We have the basic commands such as FTP_CONNECT, FTP_COMMAND, and FTP_DISCONNECT that can be strung together to create a complete file operation action. The FTP_COMMAND Function allows you to issue arbitrary FTP commands as long as the SAPFTP function, the Host, and the Destination server all support the command. Then you have the specialized functions such as FTP_R3_TO_SERVER, FTP_R3_TO_CLIENT, and FTP_CLIENT_TO_R3. This lets you take some data in memory and transfer it someplace else. This has the advantage of not having to write the data to the file system first and not to have to issue any FTP commands. However these functions are also limited to the scope described.
    If you are already familiar with FTP in general, working with these function modules should not seem to difficult. The Connect, Command, Disconnect actions would seem somewhat self explanatory. So instead of looking at the entire program in detail let's focus on two things that may be unfamiliar. First the program starts off with an ABAP Kernel System call to AB_RFC_X_SCRAMBLE_STRING. Well we don't want to pass a potentially sensitive password openly. Therefore the FTP_CONNECT function module requires that the password be encrypted before it receives it. It is this System call that performs that one-way encryption. Now I checked a 620 SP42 system and in this example, SAP has replace the AB_RFC_X_SCRAMBLE_STRING with a function call to HTTP_SCRAMBLE. Unfortunately HTTP_SCRAMBLE doesn't even exist in my 46C system. The only other thing that I wanted to point out about these function calls is the exporting parameter on the FTP_CONNECT. It passes back a parameter called handle. This handle then becomes an importing parameter to all subsequent calls: FTP_COMMAND and FTP_CLOSE. This handle is the pointer to the instance of FTP that we started with the FTP_CONNECT. This assures that we get reconnected to the same FTP session with each command we issue.
    FTP Development
    I thought I would share a few of the things that can be built using this FTP functionality. First off I didn't want a bunch of ABAP programs directly working with the SAP FTP Function modules. As you can see there is already a difference in the examples for encrypting the password between 46C and 620. Therefore I thought it would be best to encapsulate all the FTP function in one custom ABAP OO Class. Not only did I get the opportunity to hid the inner SAP functionality and make it easy to switch out during upgrades, but I also get consistent error handling as well. I accept the User Name, Password, Host, and RFC Destination in during the Constructor of the class. I then store these values away in Protected Attributes. Each function module is then implemented as a Instance Method. The Password encryption functionality is then all tucked away nicely in the class. Also the calling program doesn't have to worry about keeping track of the FTP handle either since it is an instance attribute as well.
    Next I got really carried away. I wanted a way to record entire FTP scripts that could be filled with values at runtime and ran as a step in a background job. My company used to have many interfaces that ran frequently sending files all over the place. We needed a mechanism to monitor and support these file moves. This was really the root of this tool, but it also gives you an idea of how powerful these functions can be.
    Closing
    I hope that anyone interested in FTP from ABAP will find this resource useful. If anyone has any other resources that should be included here, feel free to post them.

    I've been in IT for over 30 years as a mainframe contract programmer/analyst. Recently a company hired me for my legacy knowledge of there business to become a developer on SAP for these same systems.
    My first task is to develop a generalized ftp application to send data to the mainframe and then on to financial institutions. I have created an ABAP/4 test program with literals for the dest/host etc. And it works fine. I need more detail/guidance in creating the Class/Method/Function you have described to make this parameter driven and callable by other programs. I know this is a lot to ask, any help in pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. When I mention class creation to the existing staff they all say "Oh, we don't use or know anything about that object oriented stuff, we just right programs."
    Thanks,
    Tom

    "we don't use or know anything about that object oriented stuff" That's something I might have expected to hear 4 years ago. That's kind of like saying that you only want to use half of the programming lanuage (the old half at that).
    However it is true that you have to learn to walk before you run. There are some fundamentals to ABAP that are usefull to have down before you start in with ABAP OO. But I wouldn't let that hold you back for long.
    I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to teach you everything you would need to know to create a function module or a class in this posting. There was a nice weblog that was just posted the other day that had the steps to create your first simple class. I suggest you start there.
    As far as my FTP class goes, I don't mind sending you the code for the class. My email address is already all over SDN (and spammers' lists) so just send me the address that you want the details sent to. My email is [email protected].

  • Write to text file qeustion

    Hello all,
    My first question about writing to text file is does the file need to be opened? i know you have the option to create, replace, open..., but does it need to be opened in order to properly write data to the file? Also if my application is running with a disk streaming file setup and i open the file that it is writing to will this cause an error or cause labview to lose control of the file and possibly stop writing to the file?
    Thank you,
    Matt

    Feel free to experiment.  Try writing to a file from multiple locations at once, and you'll see race conditions where data could be lost.
    The reason for the Open, Write, Close type of software is because generally you are in a loop continually writing to a file, and the extra overhead of a Open and Close can be limited to when the software starts and closes, instead of having to open a new reference and close it every time you want to write to the file.  Just open the reference once, work with it in a while loop, then close it once, must more efficient and better for applications that write many times to disk.
    Is it necessary?  No you can just use the Write to Text file giving it a path and data to write, but behind that function it will need to open and close the reference each time.

  • From PLSQL - Need to write a text file

    Hello

    Thanks

    You can use package UTL_FILE to write out to a file. Your DBA has to make initialization changes to support this. They might already have it setup. Run this query:
    SELECT value
    FROM v$parameter
    WHERE name = 'utl_file_dir';
    To see whether it has been configured properly. The value is the directory where you can create and write files.

  • How to import data from a text file into a table

    Hello,
    I need help with importing data from a .csv file with comma delimiter into a table.
    I've been struggling to figure out how to use the "Import from Files" wizard in Oracle 10g web-base Enterprise Manager.
    I have not been able to find a simple instruction on how to use the Wizard.
    I have looked at the Oracle Database Utilities - Overview of Oracle Data Pump and the Help on the "Import: Files" page.
    Neither one gave me enough instruction to be able to do the import successfully.
    Using the "Import from file" wizard, I created a Directory Object using the Create Directory Object button. I Copied the file from which i needed to import the data into the Operating System Directory i had defined in the Create Directory Object page. I chose "Entire files" for the Import type.
    Step 1 of 4 is the "Import:Re-Mapping" page, I have no idea what i need to do on this page. All i know i am not tying to import data that was in one schema into a different schema and I am not importing data that was in one tablespace into a different tablespace and i am not R-Mapping datafiles either. I am importing data from a csv file.
    For step 2 of 4, "Import:Options" page, I selected the same directory object i had created.
    For step 3 of 4, I entered a job name and a description and selected Start Immediately option.
    What i noticed going through the wizard, the wizard never asked into which table do i want to import the data.
    I submitted the job and I got ORA-31619 invalid dump file error.
    I was sure that the wizard was going to fail when it never asked me into which table do i want to import the data.
    I tried to use the "imp" utility in command-line window.
    After I entered (imp), i was prompted for the username and the password and then the buffer size as soon as i entered the min buffer size I got the following error and the import was terminated:
    C:\>imp

    Please show me the easiest way to import a text file into a table. How complex could it be to do a simple import into a table using a text file?
    We are testing our application against both an Oracle database and a MSSQLServer 2000 database.
    I was able to import the data into a table in MSSQLServer database and I can say that anybody with no experience could easily do an export/import in MSSQLServer 2000.
    I appreciate if someone could show me how to the import from a file into a table!
    Thanks,

  • Upload text file to oracle table with checking and aggregation

    Hi Friends,
    I am new to ODI.  I have encountered a problem which is specific to ODI 11G (11.1.1.6.3) to upload text file to oracle table with checking and aggregation.  Would you please teach me how to implement the following requirement in ODI 11G?
    Input text file a:
    staffCode, staffCat, status, data
    input text file b:
    staffCodeStart, staffCodeEnd, staffCat
    temp output oracle table c:
    staffCat, data
    output oracle table d:
    staffCat, data
    order:
    a.staffCode, a.staffCat, a.status
    filter:
    a.status = ‘active’
    join:
    a left outerjoin b on a.staffCode between b.staffCodeStart and b.staffCodeEnd
    insert temp table c:
    c.staffCat = if b.staffCat is not null then b.staffCat else a.staffCat
    c.data = a.data
    insert table d:
    if c.staffCat between 99 and 1000 then d.staffCat = c.staffCat, d.data = sum(c.data)
    else d.staffCat = c.staffCat, d.data = LAST(c.data)
    Any help on fixing this is highly appreciated. Thanks!!
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Dear Santy,
    Many thanks for your prompt reply.  May I have more information about the LAST or SUM step?
    I was successful to create and run the following interfaces p and q
    1. Drag text file a to a newly created interface panel p
    2. Filter text file a : a.status = ‘active’
    3. Lookup text file a to text file b : a.staffCode between b.staffCodeStart and b.staffCodeEnd
    4. Drag oracle temp table c to interface panel p
    5. Set c.staffCat : CASE WHEN b.staffCat IS NULL THEN a.staffCat ELSE b.staffCat END
    6. Set c.data : a.data
    7. Drag oracle temp table c to a newly created interface panel q
    8. Drag oracle table d to interface panel q
    9. Set UK to d.staffCat
    10. Set Distinct Rows to table d
    11. Set d.staffCat = c.staffCat
    12. Set d.data = SUM(c.data)
    However, the interface q should be more than that:
    If c.staffCat is between 99 and 1000, then d.data = the last record c.data; else d.data = sum(c.data)
    Would you please teach me how to do the LAST or SUM steps?  Moreover, can interface p and interface q be combined to one interface and do not use the temp table c?  Millions thanks!

    Chris

  • How to extract data from  text file to database table

    Hi ,
    I am trying to upload  data in text file to database table  using GUI_UPLOAD function .what would be the program for that.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I don't think you have a standard sap program to upload data from file to database table...
    Instead you can create a custom program like this..
    DATA: T_FILEDATA(1000) OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
    DATA: T_ZTABLE LIKE ZTABLE OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
      EXPORTING
        filename                      = 'C:\TEST.TXT'
      tables
        data_tab                      = T_FILEDATA
    EXCEPTIONS
       FILE_OPEN_ERROR               = 1
       FILE_READ_ERROR               = 2
       NO_BATCH                      = 3
       GUI_REFUSE_FILETRANSFER       = 4
       INVALID_TYPE                  = 5
       NO_AUTHORITY                  = 6
       UNKNOWN_ERROR                 = 7
       BAD_DATA_FORMAT               = 8
       HEADER_NOT_ALLOWED            = 9
       SEPARATOR_NOT_ALLOWED         = 10
       HEADER_TOO_LONG               = 11
       UNKNOWN_DP_ERROR              = 12
       ACCESS_DENIED                 = 13
       DP_OUT_OF_MEMORY              = 14
       DISK_FULL                     = 15
       DP_TIMEOUT                    = 16
       OTHERS                        = 17
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
            WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
    ENDIF.
    LOOP AT T_FILEDATA.
      T_ZTABLE = T_FILEDATA.
      APPEND T_ZTABLE.
    ENDLOOP.
    MODIFY ZTABLE FROM TABLE T_ZTABLE.
    COMMIT WORK..

  • Write to Text File.vi Output file all but first line start with tab

    The attached PNG shows the code used to build up concatenated strings into a string array for the first four lines, thence to a string Array, to Spreadsheet String.vi and, finally, the use of Write to Text File.vi
    The lower right corner shows the result loaded into a spreadsheet. Note the 3 blank entries marked by a filled red rectangle. Examination of hidden characters shows there is a tab at the beginning of lines 2, 3 and 4.
    There is no tab shown in the code. How do those tabs get there? How do I stop them?
    I have tried with the option "Convert EOL" both on and off with no difference.
    The Help states that an OS-dependent EOL character is appended to each line. I can't imagine the Windows EOL character includes a tab.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I am still puzzled as to why those additional tabs were added by Array to Spreadsheet String.  I'm holding in my hand a printout of an old LabVIEW 8 program with that construction, which is known to work properly.
    Makes complete sense when you look at your code.  You build a string, including an end-of-line character, and put that string into an array.  Then, when you run it through Array to Spreadsheet String, it puts a tab after every array element, and new line at the end of each row in the array.  The first element of your array contains a new line but Array to Spreadsheet String doesn't know about it; it still inserts a tab between that array element and the next one, giving you the tabs.

  • Write to text file problem

    I have a write to 'text file' in a sub vi. It is a popup where user can change his program.
    For some reason, only the first time it is called, it actually writes to the text file.
    As long as the sub vi is in memory, and I call it again and press ok to write to text file, nothing happens.
    I've tried 'close file', but that doesnt help. Deleting the files from the disk before again calling the sub vi doesnt help either, it wont write
    to file again. Is this a bug or am I missing something?! Im on labview 2010

    Post your VI (along with sub-VI's if any).

  • Write to text file. Append to existing file. Create file if file doesn't exist.

    Hi folks,
    up to LabVIEW 7 there was a wonderful "Write to Text File" vi which allowed the option "Append to File". Now, in LabVIEW 8, this old vi is not longer supported anymore. Instead, I am suggested to use a new "Write to Text File" vi. This vi does not offer the option "Append to File" anymore. Rather it is proposed in the online help that one should use the "Set File Position" in order to append text to the file. This much less straightforward than the old solution. Furthermore, I miss an option which would create the complete path if it doesn't exist yet.
    To summarize: Isn't there really any smart "Write to Text File" vi available which offers both the options "Append" and "Create path if file does not yet exist". Of course, I could write such a file on my own but I am sure that it is of such general interest that it already exist. In any situation, when a log file shall be written, the wanted vi would be ideal.
    Thanks a lot,
    Peter

    Ray,
    I know that the old vi is still available. See the screenshot which I attach to this message. What I am missing is an option "Create file or even complete path if file or path do not yet exist.". Is there any reason why NI doesn't provide neither this option nor a simple "Append to file" functionality in the new "Write to Text File" vi?
    Regards,
    Peter

  • Write to text file returns no error even if the underlying file is deleted

    Hi,
    I'm using a CompactRIO and writing to a text file underneath the C drive.
    I'm running into an unexpected situation when I am trying to error check my file handling.  I assumed that if the underlying file being written to that was created by open/create/replace vi and written to with the "Write to Text File" vi, would return an error if I delete the file from underneath it in the file system., yet there is no reported error and the function carrys on seemingly successfully writing to a file that has been deleted.  
    Anyone know why this happens and how to potentiallly remedy?

    Ouch, this obviously isn't ideal but is probably down to the filesystem on the CompactRIO.
    I would consider putting in a check - doing something like getting the file position from the file might return an error if the file no longer exists.
