Hello Dave, Aristos Firstly, thanks for the reply. I am using the Express VI "Write LABVIEW Measurement File". I have tried to bundle both the string data (which is the format from the "Get Date/Time String", and my data which 1-D array) and connect them to the "signals" input of the file saving VI, but it baulks at this. I have also attempted to change the string data (time) to a number and add to the array, but the output format is not appropriate for my needs. The problem seems to be with the Express VI, and what it likes to see at it's input. I would like to post a copy (or even a cutout) of what I am attempting, but the project this belongs to is "commercial in confidence", so I am not permitted. Before I give up and return to the lower-level file saving VI's, I"ll spend some more time on this. Thanks again fellas Ray

Hello All I have a wee problem (well, I'm scratching my head) which may be quite simple for others...but. I am collecting data from inputs, building an array and then saving the array points to a file using 'Write LABVIEW Measurement File". This is working fine. Now I want to add a timestamp (with the seconds field) to each set of sample points, but am having a mental block when it comes getting the above VI to accept the two different data types. What am I doing wrong here, and what am I missing. If anybody can help I would be most appreciative. Thanks and best regards Ray

Thanks for your considerations Yen......food for thought best regards Ray

Hello All I am about to undertake a project which will require the use of labview on a pda. Although I have been using labview for quite a long time, I am all at sea when it comes to porting over to PDA's. Currently I use Labview 7.1 on a desktop PC, but am stunned by the amount of information regarding this topic, and don't know where to begin. Could somebody explain to me what basic requirements are necessary such as.....type of PDA (not model, although anybody with recommendations, please do so)....O/S running on the PDA.....labview software. etc. I realise the broadness of this query, but anybody with successful experience in getting a system running are welcome to respond. BTW...the system will be used in remote machine monitoirng (digital i/o control, and analog data monitoring. Thanks for any assistance and forebearance with my ignorance Regards Ray

Thanks guys for the tips....and the humour. Both made my day. See you soon from downunder Ray Thanks for the example Phil, unfortunately I'm using 7.1 and can't open it........ Ray

Hello All My current application requires that the user be able to hover the mouse pointer over an indicator on the front panel (say a tempereture reading) and have a small window pop-up with extra information enclosed (say a SAR value), and disappear when the mouse moves on. I simply have no idea where to begin, and would appreciate some assistance from others who may already have achieved this. Thanks in advance guys...and gals. Regards Ray
