Feed files saved by labview directly to the matlab executables

[AnkitG]

Hi All,

I have 2 program 1) . Labview data acquistion program which saves the data in .Ask format into particualr directly of computer. 2). Matlab program(executable) which can take those files saved by the labview program and plots them with the analysis. Now these are two separate program, I know I can call the Matlab exe from labview but I need to go that directory manually and find those files saved by labview . Is it a way by which I can directly or automatically  feed those files to matlab exe without manually going to that folder.Please let me know.

Thanks,

Ankit G

I don't know. Can you? That's a Matlab question, not a LabVIEW question. Since you are calling a Matlab executable then presumably you can pass it command-line switches to indicate a file to load. If there are, then add that to how you're calling the Matlab executable. Which, presumably, is via System Exec.
