Question - Saving tima data

[msaf]

Hello,

I need to save a list of times, in which the data is read by the data acquisition device, as a .txt or .xls file. Unfortunately, the data produced by the 'Get Date/Time' function is a string and can not be written in an .xls file. I can not append the time data in a .txt file to make a list.

I appreciate if you could help me with this.

Thanks.

You need to get a numeric instead of a string. Use the "Get Time/Date in Seconds" function of simply "Tick Count (ms)". See example below.
