Is there a way to edit the contents of the header from the "Write to Measurement File" Function

Solved!

I know there's ways to take it out entirely but there's one or two things I would want to leave in there. Circled parts on the picture I want to keep, the rest I'd like to get rid of. (P.S my vi is a little rough but well labeled). Vi also attached.

It is complicated but can be done. Here is another thread that talks about the same thing. Basically you have to convert the express VI to a regular VI and then dig down through all the subvi's till you find the one named ex_HeaderToSprdsheetStr.VI and change the header info there and save the VI as a new name. 

 

I would suggest either using the TDMS File format over the LVM format. Much easier to manipulate and add information to.
