I am using LabVIEW 2009 on a PC running Windows XP. I am trying to develop a section of a program that will take a 2-dimensional array of numeric data, convert the numeric data to strings, and for each row insert commas between each string that represents a numeric data, and then write this as a comma-separated-variable data format to a file. Each column in the original array will end up as a separate line in the target text file.
Please see the attached picture of the part of my LabVIEW program for doing the above operation (the final write-to-file operations are not shown).
The problem that I am having is that I would like to delete the final comma at the end of the string for each line, just before the CR-LF. I am using the \b code for backspace in the string concatenate function, however this does not appear to be working. Here is an example output that I get:
2.500000E+0,2.500000E+0,2.500000E+0,2.500000E+0,2.500000E+0,2.500000E+0,
I stuffed the entire array with the value of 2.5 for each element. Notice that the final comma was not removed, but a strange character (the box) was added at the end. The CR-LF did work. If I remove the \b from this program, the box character goes away.
Any suggestions? Thanks.
