• Two problems of report generation Excel on the decimal point

  Hello good people, I have a problem when you try to generate an Excel report, please see the image below:

  Note that excel removes the decimal separator in the case of the number is > 1 (so that 1 000 becomes 1000) and if the number is<1, excel="" interprets="" it="" as="" a="" text="" string="" (excel="" say="" something="" like="" "the="" number="" in="" this="" cell="" is="" formated="" as="" text,="" or="" is="" preceded="" by="" an="" apostrophe").="" how="" to="" get="" rid="" of="" these="" problems?="" i="" would="" like="" an="" integer="" to="" appear="" as="" the="" same="" integer="" in="" excel,="" and="" any="" number="" less="" than="" one="" to="" be="" interpreted="" as="" a="">

  Thank you very much in advance!

  If I disable the comma localized for this VI, do you think I'll be able to use it as a Subvi without changing the decimal separator of the VI calling parameters?

  My Excel also prefers with a floating point numbers, but I do not understand why numbers lower than that will not be treated as numbers right away?

  Hello OscarJ,

  Unfortunately the position of the decimal point is global, so call VI is affected, too.

  But there are other possible solutions: you can convert your double array in an array of strings. Conversion functions 'number in string' to disable the explicitly localized comma:

  

  Now, you can add text to your report.

  Your excel seems to interpret "," so that thousands separator and '.' as the decimal separator, so the incorrect number conversion. It seems a little odd since you say he prefers ',' as the decimal separator... There may be something to do with the office report generation tool.

• Save the report that VI of report generation toolkit is broken

  Hi all

  I created a journal vi data, using report generation tools. He works first and then I copied the vi to another folder and tried to run but ended up with a broken vi.  The error occurs in the Save report vi of report generation package.   Please see vi and captures screen attached. I'm sure that if you run the vi, it might work on your machine, but will not work on mine. That's why I find it cable. Has anyone seen this kind of problem before?

  Hi all

  I spoke with an application OR engineer and we have tried to compile mass of Labview on the particular folder containing the VI.

  Tools---> Advanced---> massive compilation.  This corrects the problem.

  Thank you

• Set the position of the cursor in the text added (to make the part of the text in index) in WORD using Report Generation Toolkit

  I would like to generate a report in WORD using the report generation toolkit.

  Whenever a text is added to the report, the program should put part of the text index. The problem I am facing with is to set the cursor position in the current location of the text.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello!
  I think that's what you wanted (see attachment).

  First, you must set position for each loop, so after adding the table, your cursor index need to increase the number of added characters. That's why I have included the text of the report, Append - to get the position of the cursor at the end.

  Indexing begins with 0, so you need to set the 3 and 7.

  Hope you get what I mean

• VI LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit elements in a TestStand sequence does not work with a LabVIEW 8.5 run-time engine

  Hi all

  I'm using LabVIEW 8.5.1 and TestStand 4.1. I did a sequence TestStand with a VI in this document, which uses items Report Generation Toolkit. On my machine I use LabVIEW and TestStand development system license. On another machine I use TestStand with basic deployment license and I chose the LabVIEW 8.5 run-time engine in the Configuration of the adapter. Everything works well except this VI with elements of Report Generation Toolkit. The error message shows that the VI is not executable. It works well only after I installed with a trial license and selected LabVIEW LabVIEW 8.5 development system in the Configuration of the adapter.

  I found other posts and a document in the knowledge base with a similar problem: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/8A0E6274D9BD7B1986256F62006AD402?OpenDocument but I am not no EXE files in my sequence, so I do not know how to fix mine. Someone has an idea?

  
  

• Report Generation Toolkit Table Row height-MS Word

  I have a problem affecting the height of table row in the report generation tool. I can set the width of the thin columns, but line height seems to remain the same, no matter what I put it. I have attached the VI that generates and formats the table and print it's catchy. I've also attached the template file that I use.

  Advice for it to work well? I'm doing the cells exactly the same height as the text inside.

  Hello

  So I essaye.2 and it did not work.  So I went to Word to change it manually, and it doesn't work anymore.  There is a selection box in word, for the properties of the table, which appears as default value 'at least'.  When I have it changed manually on 'exactly' in word, no problem with le.2 manually in Word.

  I hope that this can be set in the model, for all new tables inserted.  I don't know that the generator report VI sets this property.  Well, that's a start for the question.

  Edit *.

  You can go in the table add VI and expose the property.  See photo.   However, you must decide if you want to 'upgrade' this VI to expose this property or make a copy with the exposed property at all times.   I not messed with new reports of class too, so not sure of ins and outs with that.

  I think that's the problem with the line size becomes smaller.

  

• Report generation Exe error

  Hello

  I use LV 8.6.1 with report generation tool 1.13 and I'm having problems to make my exe built to work.  I try to open an excel template and fill it with new data.  I broke the vi downwards to open just excel - open the template and then fill out some data.  But at this point excel opens not at all.  And of course, everything works fine in the development environment.

  Error code:-2147352573

  Member not found in NI_ReportgenerationToolkit.lvlib:

  Excel_open_workbook.VI

  NI_Excel.lvclass: new reportsubvi.vi

  I read a few pages of help that says Add LVclass and \vi.lib\utility\NIreport.llb directories in project folder and add them to the always include section of the build.  But no luck so far.

  Aside: the machine I want to use it on a 8.6.1 full which does not have the extra excel functions available my developer.  Is it possible to install the DEV report generation tool in the full version?  Then I wouldn't need to build an exe file.

  UPDATE: I just tried the exe on another computer that has a suite of Developer installed and it worked fine.  So I guess I need to know what I need to add to the building to make it work.

  Make versions of Excel are the same?

  Microsfoft has improved the ActiveX interface for each version so that the old instance didn't connect.

• create the new file using report generation express vi

  Hello

  In my application, I need to write that certain data in spreadsheet Excel. For whom I created an excel template and I used the express vi report generation Toolkit to record appropriate data in the columns of the place. I need a new file created every day by the name of the day and write the data that he rest of the day. I have problems, create the new file using this express vi. I tried to use the low level vi but not able to make properly.

  Join my code and the excel template.

  Help, please.

  Thank you!

  I suspect that your problem is illegal characters (' / ') in your path, certainly it is the case in your original vi. You need to format your path, something like this (underscore instead of a slash stroke):

  

• Strange behavior with Report Generation Toolkit. Table does not table.

  We use a Word 2003 (.doc) document as a template for a summary of the report.  It works fine on the development PC.  It fills the fields in the document and fills the chart correctly, as shown in the picture below.

  

  However, he cannot even on another station.  Although the 2D table is identical and so is the software to investigate the matter, the table does not get filled correctly.  I studied using Word 2010 (.docx) as a model, with the same results.

  I was not able to understand what is different between stations 2 and why it does not work on the 2nd station.  I googled similar questions on the Web site of NOR and was only this article in the knowledge base concerning the new lines in the cell, which is not my case.

  That's what I have on the 2nd machine:

  

  The table that is sent to the table contains the appropriate data :

  

  I just found out this is a known bug, which obviously has not yet been resolved (finally... at least until LV2012SP1).

• Report generation toolkit jump between workbooks

  Hello

  I'm having a problem with my VI which I wonder if anyone has a solution too or workaround.

  Basically during my tests I write multiple data sets to different sheets of Excel using the report generation tool.

  At the beginning of my code, I have opened a workbook (Excel model file), I write data to the file at the end of each test for each iteration, and then save and close the file at the end.

  I have attached a PNG of one of my screws that writes a set of data in a worksheet, it might be called several times during my code.

  The question I have is that if I work with a separate workbook, whenever my slot that VI runs, it will pass test results workbook.

  I am aware that I 'Get' the workbook in my code and that's why it happens.

  Is there a way to call different sheets in a workbook in a VI without affecting the user who is working on a separate Binder, write data in the background?

  I'm not sure if it is possible to write data to different sheets in a workbook without using the 'Excel get sheet VI' before entering data.

  I know I could just save all data in tables and then at the end to write all data to the workbook, but it isn't a preference

  Any information would be appreciated with gratitude

  Thank you.

• LV 2011 report Generation Toolkit Constantly calls for 8.6.1 CD

  I'm having a strange problem.

  Its a little intermittent, so I'll try my best to explain when it occurs.

  -If I do a new project and run something the report generation tool, I get an installer of labview 8.6.1. I'm under Labview 2011 and I had never installed 8.6.1 on this computer. He will spend about 3 minutes install something, then ask for a CD of labview 8.6.1.

  -If I hit Cancel it disappears for the project until I restart the computer. In fact, should not be the CD, it asks just for her. The VI containing the Subvi report runs very well, but if I open one of the front panels I get message Setup again.

  -If I ran something that uses the report generation tool earlier in this session of connection I do not encounter the bug.

  -Restart labview does not appear, only the computer restarts

  

  There are classes in the GTA that are loaded dynamically.  You must include the screws in your construction.

  We have found that you must add the following two folders to your project and then force them to be in your EXE version.

• Cannot print on the Epson TM - U590 Slip printer Report Generation Toolkit with LabVIEW 8.6.1

  Hi all

  I have an application that uses the report generation tool to print tickets for a printer file.  Usually, it works very well - I 8 existing facilities where there is no problem

  I install the software on a new site that uses a printer Epson TM-U590 slip currently and I can't for the life of get me printing to work

  Using a Standard report, the Print Report.vi returns error-41002, indicating it does not find the printer.  I opened the VI using the remote debugging and it does not find the name of the printer properly with the available query Printers.vi.  It gets an error-2147352567 code starting from the printed node, which is then replaced by the de-41002 error that is reported.

  For historical reasons, I always use LabVIEW 8.6.1 for this project.  I plan to spend in 2011 or 2012, but I had some reliability problems with the other parts of the application after trying to upgrade to a new version of LabVIEW, so I would avoid it at this point.

  The application runs on a standard desktop with Windows 7.  The slip printer works fine if I print from Notepad, and my request is happy to print to any other printer, just don't slip printer.

  The slip printer using the LPT port.  Previously, printers of the folder that I used were USB but I expect the printer driver to hide the details of the application...

  Any ideas would be very appreciated

  See you soon

  I managed to solve the problem, thanks to this article: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/67D60209102E2161862568AC0074BF64

  I now have the same problem with a folder of Star printer (a TUP592), this time with another program developed in LabVIEW 2011.

  As mentioned in the article, the problem is in fact to do with margin settings rather than the name of the printer, despite what says the error message

  After some tests, I received the Star printer to work by setting a large (> 14cm) right margin.  No idea why this is necessary because it seems quite happily print to the right edge of the paper, but there you go.

  So I don't have defintely solved the original problem yet, as I've not had back on the site, but I hope that it will be useful to someone else.

  See you soon

• Report generation-&gt; generate an exe from a PC with different Version of Office

  Hello

  I want to build an exe from a VI that use Report Generation Toolkit. The application must be deployed on multiple PCs using Office 2000. During the development phase, I installed Office 2000 on my PC, and everything was ok. After that I was with her, I have reinstalled Office 2007. The Report Generation Toolkit to my PC is so for Office 2000 (it was installed when I had Office 2000 on my PC).

  These days I had to fix a few bugs in my application, I did a new exe but the part that generates the Word reports (using the GTA) doesn't work anymore - I received this error with-35... 9935 (or something like that).

  I tried to find the problem and I found this: with exactly the same VI (_Word dynamic VIs.vi - for Office 2000) nodes invoke from a PC with Office 2007 and Office 2000 PC look different. For example, in Word_Open_Document.vi, the node to invoke Document is different for a PC with Office 2000 + GTA for the year 2000 and a PC with Office 2007 + GTA for Office 2000 (no error).

  So, I tried to copy the VI from a PC with Office 2000 + GTA 2000 on my PC but I can't build it because I get the error: there are a few errors in dynamic VIs.vi _Word (invoke nodes do not match).

  Finally, my question is: How can I build the exe on my PC: 2007, but with GTA for Office 2000 Office?

  Thank you

  Paul

  Hello

  Thank you for your advice. Can you please tell me what you mean with the envelope vi? I don't really understand what you mean.

  Furthermore, I solved the problem. I discovered that the nodes invoke are updated based on the object library for the ActiveX control (in this case the MS Office). The data types are store in the msword9.olb (version 9 - for office 2000 in the Office folder) and msword.olb (version 12 - for office 2007 also in the Office folder). I tried to save the msword9.olb (using the regsvr32.exe) but it does not work for olb files - I need the ocx or dll. But, if I can replace the msword.olb since Office 2007 Office msword9.olb 2000 everything works.

  OK, measures that need to be made:

  1. install the GTA for Office 2000 on the PC

  2. DON'T change anything in the VIs.vi _Word_Dynamic. When Office 2007 is installed the VI arrow should be ventilated (error in VI)

  3 copy the msword9.olb for a system with Office 2000 (or your version) and copy it to your system with Office 2007 with the new name msword.olb. Are NOT FORGET to make a backup of the original file to MS Office 2007 and handing it to the end.

  4. once the new msword.olb is there, the VIs.vi _Word_Dynamic should be no error

  5. build your app exe

  6. restore the old msword.olb

  7. ENJOY your life!

  I hope that it is also useful for someone else.

• Report generation toolkit

  Hello

  I recently bought the report generation tool kit and trying to familiarize myself with its use. I encountered a problem trying to 'get the last line' during playback of an excel worksheet. The attached vi and .xls appears to be to the row and column index and feedback data is empty. I'm sure it's a simple solution, but I don't see at the moment.

  I'd appreciate any help.

  Thank you

  Gizzmo,

  How much experience do you have programming with LabVIEW?

  Attached you will find the good vi.

  Hope that things become clearer now.
