[pikro]

Hi, i've problem with data types.

I have file with date. This file has format

for example:

0,245789;-1,021874

it's type *.csv for ms excel

I can read data from the file and set it to the array. But dont know how to convert the string to float. I have tried to use typecast, but the result has no sence

There are a few different ways to do it. Take a look in the LabVIEW help for Scan From String or Scan From File or Fract/Exp String to Number.

Drat! TobyD beat me to it.
