Trend files end in .log
« on: May 08, 2018, 08:45:44 AM »
So for some reason. This one setup (v3.99y Beta 7) creates filename.csv.log (My part I setup to have filename.csv). why is it appending .log on the end. I have others I been playing with now for a while. They all take the filename.csv that I set them up for.
Thanks
George

BasicDataLoggers have been updated to include other features.

If you check the code and look inside the StoreValue sub then you will see 2 lines that have this part:

& ".log"

You can delete these parts (but not the full line) and it should allow you to use filename.csv as you did previously.

Godra,

Thanks for the reply. I haven't tried playing with any code up till now. I thought if I doubleclicked the Basicdatalogger, that would pop up. But, I don't see it. Where am I looking for this?
Thanks
George

Go to the control and hit F7, the code will open.

I have attached a picture that shows Solution Explorer.

If you right-click the control, it will show a menu with "View Code" or F7 option.

The mentioned code is inside the region named "Events".
