Re: create a small data base stored in a file

For something this small, use a single VI to manage it in memory: It has a FUNCTION input, an enum with values of (INIT, READ FILE, WRITE FILE, ADD ITEM, FIND ITEM). It has a CLUSTER input, which is your record type {Item number, serial number, time stamp, description} It has a CLUSTER output,

Re: How can I design this subVI's connector?

2004-01-05 Thread Mads
If you right-click on the VI's icon in the top right corner and select patterns you can select a connector pattern that has more terminals. The maximum is 28. If you ever need more than 28 the solution is to use clusters and arrays.

Re: How can I design this subVI's connector?

You can also adapt it exactly to the number of terminals you need; if you have 16 and just want one extra just right-click on the pattern (where you assign terminals) and choose to add a terminal.

You do not need to use them all, just select a pattern that has more than 17 and wire up the ones you need.
