String to image data conversion

[Help66]

hi

just a gentle problem. I am having trouble converting a string into image data. I was wondering how to do this without using IMAQ functions.

Thanks.

Hi Help,

how does the string look like?

Which kind of conversion are you trying to do?

Where does the string come from?

Can you attach an example VI containing the string data?

You can write the string to a file and then open that file as an image? (JPG/PNG/etc)

A string and an Image are two completely different data types, and without an understanding of the information in your string it would be impossible for us to know how to help you convert it to an image. As others have said, please provide much more information, including where this string has come from (source), how the information in the string is stored (datatype), what kind of image you're expecting (picture, IMAQ, bitmap) etc.
