Correlate Data File Name to Results File

[simply_me]

Hello,

My vi performs statistics on multiple data files, and I was wondering if it is possible to correlate the new file names (of the results) to their original data sets. For example: data files names: data1 & data2 will output result files: data1_result & data2_result.

Is this possbile to do?

Thank you?

Sure it's just a matter of taking the file paths you are starting with and doing some file path strips and builds to generate a new file path from that.  It seems like you are already doing some file path building in your VI so I'm sure you can figure out what you want to do.

Cool, thanks, I haven't thought about striping the path....

Hi simply_me,

for future reference: You should avoid hidden wires when you post a solution as picture. Your picture is very hard to read due to bad wiring...

I hope this one is better 🙂

So if file path stripping and building was the solution to your problem, then shouldn't my message #2 be marked as the solution?
