Getting Data Type


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm reading data from a .ini file and want to convert all the data read into strings.

The number and order of data types in the .ini file will vary, so I cannot manually program LabVIEW to convert the data into strings and must try to find out what data type was read.

So my question is, is there a sort of "istype" function available in LabVIEW.

All help very much appreciated, thanks!

cheers

Solution found. Was as simple as setting the default value of the Read Key.vi as a string type.

Sorry.

cheers
