Convert/import to Excel TDMS

So I a few LabVIEW code what newspapers to TDMS very well.  I installed PDM Excel add on Excell 2007 and it imports the PDM very well and it looks good.

What I want to do now is instead of having just I want file PDM, as with the equivalent XLS.  As if I imported the DDHN in Excel and then save the workbook in XLS or XLSX.  So I wanted to import the PDM file programmatically, get the active workbook from Excel and then programmatically save the active workbook in XLS or XLSX in the same directory as the original PDM.

I have problems with the first step in my plan.  I see here there are a few details on how to call import TDMS using ActiveX, but when I use it I get an error.  Call ShowAboutDlg or ShowConfigDlg work fine, but when I call the import it I get a "an unknown error has occurred: 0 x 80004003" I think that it is an invalid pointer.

The VI that I used to try to import a TDMS file is attached.  Recorded in 8.20, importing TDM 3.1.0.25, running with Excel 2007 on XP SP3. Thank you.

EDIT: The VI is pointing to a TDMS file that comes with LabVIEW 2009, this path may need to be changed.

Thank you ykdoubles, your VI has been very useful.  With he was able to accomplish my goal to be able to convert to PDM to XLSX with Excel and add it on.  Here's what I came up with for anyone who is interested.

If you have Excel 2003 it may not work, or you may just need to update some of the calls.

    I need to convert PDF to Excel, however, the columns and tabs make many merged cells and the number of columns empty. In addition to not separate the columns properly, I see many not separate lines together in the same cell. I even think that Adobe Acrobat Pro DC has limits. There is no way to set what points in columns to force the column break? Or create several columns that are unnecessary? How column in Excel, size fixed when import us text and define where breaks have columns of text?

    PDF does not contain columns, lines, formats, styles or other aspects of word processing or spreadsheet file formats.

    This is because the PDF is decidedly not a file format of word processor or a spreadsheet or something 'like' one of these.

    (see ISO 32000 for what PDF "is")

    Which allows to optimize the export of the content of a page PDF is to start with that tag well formed PDF (ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1).

    Without that export is what it is and we performs the cleanup of any necessary content using the native application for the export of files (MS Word or Excel).

  • How to import the excel with its property sheet

    HII

    My task is to import my excel sheet in the control of my frontpanal... but on the excel sheet to open I want to update my forehead pave...

    Essential is my excel worksheet contains cells with different colors in each cell... my task is to import this file because it is in my spreadsheet to my Panel object before labview excel...

    can any 1 suggest me an idea how to implement this task...

    The Microsoft Office Spreadsheet ActiveX control will not import an Excel workbook. If you choose to use a table of LabVIEW control or ActiveX control, you can manually read the data in your Excel workbook using ActiveX (for Excel 2003 and earlier versions), and then fill the control (whether it is a table of LabVIEW or spreadsheet ActiveX control). Then, still using ActiveX calls once you must browse your Excel spreadsheet and read cell background colors, and then define the cells of the table LabVIEW control or control ActiveX to be the same. This is done by using the properties of the controls.

    Bottom line: this is a very manual process. For example, the attached VI is one that I post quite often. It will read the data from an Excel worksheet, and place it in a table of LabVIEW Control.

    Another option is to simply use a web browser control and display the worksheet by using the Excel plugin browser, as this is explained in this article: using the browser control Microsoft Web to incorporate a spreadsheet Excel in LabVIEW.

    Question: Why do you need to do this? What you are trying to accomplish in the long term? Perhaps there is a better way to do it.

  • ExportPDF does not convert files PDF Excel sheets consistantly.

    We used ExportPDF to convert a pdf file (which includes tabular data) in an excel worksheet. He has worked successfully for several months. Since last week, pdf converter does not work expected. The converted worksheet has data in all directions. to cross this control, I tried to convert a previously converted pdf file converted to an excel spreadsheet and even that fails (successfully). There has been no change in the way we create the PDF, and that's why we're wonderiing where lack us something. Any words of advice?

    A well-trained marked PDF (ISO 14289-1, compatible PDF/UA) will provide a high level of satisfaction of the export.

    For anything else, it's a roll of the dice.

  • 'Convert pdf to Excel' vs 'export pdf to Excel.

    In the new subscription CD, the option of PDF conversion options ($ 1.99 / month) says we can "Convert pdf to Excel", while the PDF package option ($ 7.99 / month) says you can "export pdf to Excel.  What is the difference between 'Convert pdf to Excel' and 'export pdf to Excel?

    'Marketing' talk.

    Is the file being developed 'PDF' and PDF format published by Adobe for ISO a few years ago.

    In the Adobe PDF Reference documents and now in ISO 32000-1: 2008 (and the following; 'Part 2') 'export' PDF is described - not "convert".

    Factually, it would be 'export '. So 'convert' seems to be a malignant fever of marketing.

    Hi martinjetpack,

    To convert PDF to PowerPoint files, you need The Adobe PDF Pack subscription (or Acrobat). If you wish, we can convert your ExportPDF subscription to a subscription Pack PDF Adobe (if there is a cost difference). Please let me know if you want to change your subscription, and I can take care of it for you.

  • Import an Excel file

    Is there a simple way to import an excel file to use as the basis for the creation of a report?

    On the utilities tab, you can download a spreadsheet (which has been saved as a CSV file) into a new table of data loading and unloading. The table will be based on the columns of the worksheet, so it helps to have the first row contains column names. After importing, you can go to your application and create a report on this table.
