Average data from multiple text files
I am new to labVIEW so any help is appreciated:
I have a 100 txt files with two columns (separate tab) for a value of X and Y.
I need the average of the values of Y to generate a single file and generate X against Y graph.
So, how to read the data of these text files? (without having to select each one individually) and the average data and create a chart XY him?
Thanks in advance
There is a function to list folder in the palette of the file i/o that will return an array of file names. Feed this table in a loop to open and read each file in turn. Put in a new file, build a table with her, process the data or do whatever you want.

How to extract specific data from a text file
Hello world
For my project, it is necessary that a parameter file is read at the beginning, so that variables be initialized with specific values that change with the user.
For now, the mode of action is as follows: the values in a sequence specified in a text file are read and saved in a table and the elements of the array are extracted according to their index.
The problem with this implementation is, that if for any reason any changes file format, for example we want to use a settings file from a previous version of the program, which has the values for the variables of same but in a different order, the only way to have good values for the parameters is to change everything accordingly which is really time wasting.
Could someone suggest another implementation that make reading the different values independently of their order in the file, for example by analysing the file for specific strings and by reading the value after the string?
Thank you very much.
P.S. I've attached a screenshot of the routine, which I use now.
Hi panagiov,
Find attached files.
Method 1: in this you can search for each variable separately. You can use "Live Config file" to get all the keys (variable) at a time, and then you can use for loop to get their values. Or you can access values as indicated in the present code.
Method 2: Here you will have all the data at once. You will get variables and data (table 2D), you should look for the variables as needed.
I hope you understand these methods.
Good luck

Import data from the text file to open the Document
This should seem simple, but I can't find a way to import a text file delimited to tab automatically on opening the document. I can open my form fill pdf document, select Forms > more form Options > data management > Import Data > change the bottom right "Text (*.txt) files" file type, select the file, then import with no problems. I can't find a way to do this automatically when the document opens. I know a *.fdf file will do, but my data are in a tab delimited text file. If this is not possible, is there a program or a script that will convert *.txt to import *.fdf? Thanks for your time. Steve
Have you looked at using custom JavaScript?
You will need to work on how the data file select the line form.

Using the data from the text file to the plot on a histogram
Hi professionals of the NC.
I have a data file text attached with 3 columns of data and I would draw it with a histogram.
Unfortunately, the histogram data to create will not let me extract the values I want to draw it...
I've seen some of the older ones on how to do that, unfortunately, it was a very long thread and the screw, images have been corrupted.
Someone has a great solutions for this...? Really appreciate it!
Hi Lexen,
no need to use ExpressVIs:
I used the simple histogram function, there is a step where you can provide more parameters. And I used LV2011, so the ReadSpreadsheetFile function looks different than in the latest versions of LabVIEW.
in the desire to tell graphic C Red, G will be blue and D in green...
I don't know what means DMC, but change properties parcel should be pretty easy!

I have a text in a file archive data that contains various information (numeric and string) I need to load into various controls in a VI that was to open the file and look for some characters of beginning and end of loading? The information was listed by the VI of control so can I just load a previous series of data using its path and file name of data control?
I guess that the following numbers the "data OH are listed below:" is supposed to go in a 2D array?
There are several ways to do so. A simple way is to simply read the file and cut each of the sections of interest and convert the string in a table 2D, like this:
Another is to read the file using read the spreadsheet file, and then the index on the first column and use it to search for the clues where areas of interest. You can then use subset of the table to get the 2D data table.

Reading data from a text (JS CS3) file tabs-delimited
Hi - I'm working on a script to read data from a text file and use in a dialog box. But I hit a wall.
I used a script from a previous post that defines a variable text document when the user script he chooses from a drop-down list.
var myDialog = app.dialogs.add({name:"Map",canCancel:true});)
{with (MyDialog)}{with (dialogColumns.Add ())}
{with (borderPanels.Add ())}
staticTexts.add ({staticLabel: "choose the location :"});})
{with (dialogColumns.Add ())}
var file = File("~/Desktop/myPlacesfile.txt");leader. Open ("r");
var str = file.read ();
leader. Close();
var myPlaceList = str.split (/ [\r\n] + /);
var myPlaceMenu = dropdowns.add ({stringList:myPlaceList, selectedIndex:0});})
}
}}}
Ditto var = myDialog.show ();
if(myResult == true) {}
If (myPlaceMenu.selectedIndex == 0) {}
myPlace var = ' - undefined ";
} else {}
myPlace var = myPlaceList [myPlaceMenu.selectedIndex];
Alert (myPlace);
}myDialog.destroy ();
}That's what I do now:
The text file is in this format:
Value1 value2 [TAB]
Value1 value2 [TAB]
Value1 value2 [TAB]
I need to have the drop down dialog box show only the value 1, and after that the user selects, the script returns only the value 2. (The alert is just there to test - I'm doing something else with the variable).
Is there a way to view the first part of a tab-delimited line in the menu drop down and return the second half as a variable?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
One of the possibilities is that it. Create a table to the left of the values of the tab of the dialog box. Then create an object that you use it as a table of correspondence. Roughly as follows:
same thing as what you have
leader. Open ("r");
var str = file.read ();
leader. Close();
var array = str.split (/ [\r\n] + /);'pairs' are the table of correspondence
pair of var = {};
as before, 'myPlaceList' will be used for the menu drop-down
var myPlaceList = [];var v;
for (var i = 0; i)< array.length;="">
{
v = table [i] .split ('\t');
pairs [v [0]] = v [1];
myPlaceList.push (v [0]);
}Add the drop-down list as before:
var myPlaceMenu = dropdowns.add ({stringList:myPlaceList, selectedIndex:0});})
the table of 'pairs' correspondence is used as follows: pairs ['value1'] returns 'value2 '.
so in your script that would be:
myPlace var pairs = [myPlaceList [myPlaceMenu.selectedIndex]];

IDCS6 MACOSX JS: data merge multiple txt files one after the other
Hello everyone.
I have a situation where I have to data merge multiple text files to a single file indesign real "base". Databases formats are the same, the point of difference is a code in the second field of the database that refers to a postal box (not a zip/postal code, a code of 'distribution center' that has possibilities of 56 or greater). I would prefer data merge a file and then somehow split the PDF via Acrobat, but the length of postal areas resulting is incompatible and something that cannot be done if the document "split" feature in acrobat.
The database starts as one massive file but using a one line code, can be divided into postal areas in separate text files.
My last question: is it possible data merge several files at the same time (for example one after the other) and to give them their names based on the names of the input text file?
OLE Kvern had a script to merge the data to a file without the user interface. I changed the last line slightly so that it generates a PDF file based on [high quality]:
if(app.documents.length != 0){ var myDocument = app.activeDocument; app.dataMergeOptions.removeBlankLines = true; //Select a source file. var myDataFile = File.openDialog("Select a data file") var exported = "file location(redacted for the sake of this post)" if(myDataFile != ""){ myDocument.dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource(myDataFile,); myDocument.dataMergeProperties.exportFile(exported,"[High Quality Print]",); } }
I guess that the answer has to do with the variable "myDataFile" and rather than just being open a dialog box, it could be somehow by selecting a table of text files, but it is where I am out of my depth.
Ideas or thoughts which may not involve trying to do both the many mergers, but can somehow revolve around a great fusion of PDF?
Thank you very much
Colin
Since writing my last response, I realized there was a better answer. It is a scenario of Peter Kahrel and a modified version of a script by Olav Kvern. Details can be found here: batch of merge data | Adobe Community
I have since made other mods to the script is easier to understand:
if(app.documents.length != 0){ // make sure to use the document that is open var myDoc = app.activeDocument; // get the name of the document that is open for future naming purposes var myName = myDoc.name // get the location of the folder that contains both the indesign files and the text files var myLocation = "FULL PATH LOCATION OF FOLDER CONTAINING TEXT FILE AND DESTINATION FOR FINAL PDFS" // define the names of the data files to use based upon the names of the indesign files var myImport = myLocation + myName + ".txt" // define the names of the data merged PDFs to be created var myExport = myLocation + myName + ".pdf" // the actual engine for the merge, including DM instructions such as remove blank lines, object fitting etc. var myDataFile = myImport app.dataMergeOptions.removeBlankLines = true; if(myDataFile != ""){ myDoc.dataMergeProperties.selectDataSource(myDataFile,); myDoc.dataMergeProperties.exportFile(myExport, "[PDF/X-1a:2001]", ); } }
If this script will automatically merge a file which is open as LONG as the data file is the same name as the indesign file with .txt at the end for example
Woodward.indd (indesign file)
Woodward.indd.txt (used for merging text file)
This script does still not the original memory and who was using an indesign document, to browse for many text files and merging of PDF based on text files.
HOWEVER, I am sure that the answer to that is based only on the use of the script above (no need to Peter batch convert script) and changing the line 9 to be a loop for... but again, this is where I come to a grinding halt. Any help would be appreciated.

I found some ways to get the path of the file, but I am defeated by pulling the list from that. the function of the path get gives me the path as "Macintosh Users:: Documents: extractedb.txt (myUsername).
What I can't understand is how to get a dialog box to display a list that represents the content in the text file, I need to change the contents of the text file, I need the box to show me what I chose and I want to save my selection as a single string.
e '.example of extractedb.txt information:
* has a random number of emails as well *.
I want this is to pull those emails from the text file and turn them into a list so I can get to be a selection in my dialog box.
Any help would be great = D
Assuming you have a text file with your example e-mail addresses, the following AppleScript will read this file in a list (mf_List) and then use this list as input to choose among the list. Because multiple selection is allowed (control button), the output is sent to a list (sel_addr). We check if the Cancel button was pressed by testing for false and if this condition is met, we the script error. Based on a single or multiple list item content of the list, display accordingly.
game of mf to ((path to the folder as text) & "mail_list.txt")
the value mf_List to {}
the value sel_addr to {}
the value mf_List to paragraphs of (read file mf)
the value sel_addr to (choose from the list mf_List with title ¬
('Mail list' with multiple selections allowed without empty selection allowed)
If sel_addr is equal to false then
Error number-128
return
end if
If length of sel_addr is equal to 1 then
sel_addr display dialog box as text
on the other
the value Point to the text of TID to AppleScript delimiters
the value Point text in AppleScript return delimiters
display the dialog box elements of sel_addr in the text
the value Text of point AppleScript delimiters to TID
end if
return

I have a LV program to save the LabVIEW data into a text file. The LV file is attached. My problem is: the first data that are saved after the headers of data, is on the first line of the text rather than the second file. Ideally, it should be line 1, line 2 from data headers. I don't know what is the origin of the data to be concatenated with the headers. Can anyone help on this please.
Thank you and thank you for your time in advance.
Hello!
Your problem seems to be quite simple, if I understand it right.
All you need is a constant to be concatenated with your header line end.
The end of the constant line is equal to CRLF.So, if you concatenate the header with the CRLF, your concatenated string will be like: "header \n".
and then, in the following lines (1, 2, 3...) your data will be available as it was already.
I enclose a snapshot with this change.
I hope that solves your problem!
Best regards.

How to view the data in the text file to the format column
Hello
I am acquiring data from an oscilloscope.
Wen I save the data in a text file to aid wite spreadsheet string, all the displayed voltage values r first, then values of time... in addition to its delimited by tabs
How can I view it like the r of time values in a single column and the voltyage of the r-values in the other column
thanx
Hello
I don't know what is exactly the format that you found. I think you should try to use the function Array transpose (from the palette of function table) before you pass the array to write to string of spread sheet function or directly loyal to Terminal son transposes on writing worksheet function and see if you get the desired results.
PS. : Share your code would be appreciated.
Kind regards

Problem with loading Variables from a text file
Hello
I'm quite a novice when it comes to scripts and I am struggling to achieve something quite simple. I want to have an external text file that will allow me to control the number of timeout that I reference in my code below. I need to be able to change this variable by editing a simple text file.
var myTimer:Timer = new Timer(60000,1);
I want to change the 60000 and 1.
I followed what looks like a nice clean approach to this tutorial: http://www.designscripting.com/2012/01/as3-flash-loading-variables-from-a-text-file/
However, when I'm stuck is how to reference my variable imported into the code. I tried 'name1' but it does not work. I get ' 1067: Implicit coercion of a value of a numeric type to a type unrelated string.' error '
I'm an output:
HTTP status = 0
Data loaded
Name1: undefined
{name2: 1}
http://screencast.com/t/gwD09jovIrb4
I use CS5 and AS3.
Thank you
Dan
I see nothing wrong with what you show, and when I try I get the following output...
HTTP status = 0
Data loaded
Name1: 6000
name2: 1
The only thing I suspect for the moment is the data file itself. I can reproduce the problem if I insert white space before this string, then make sure that the text string is not preceded by anything whatsoever.
