Hey all, running into this problem where my file isn't found. In my code I have the file name and path declared, and it works for my other spreadsheet outputs in the code. Why isn't this one working here?

Hi Parker,

 

You are probably trying to open a file that is not created yet.

Your code seems full of race conditions. You should avoid opening multiple references to the same file and writing to them at the same time.

Tip: try using an event structure instead of polling button controls in your loop.

 

Regards,

Raphaël.

Change the Operation input for the Open/Create/Replace File to "replace or create".  By default, the function tries to just open it.  If it doesn't exist, it cannot open.  So you need to tell the function to create it.
