Storing and Retrieving Test Results Chapter 5
VEE User’s Guide 219
In this example, the name of a test is stored in a String Format,
followed by a time stamp in Time Stamp Format and an array of
Real64 numbers. You will create three transactions in From File
to read the data back into VEE.
1 Select I/O ⇒ From ⇒ File and place it below the To File
object.
2 Connect the sequence output pin of the To File object to the
sequence input pin of the From File object.
This sequence connection ensures the To File object has
completed sending data to myFile before From File begins to
extract data.
3 In the From File object, leave the default data file myFile.
Double- click the transaction bar to get the I/O Transaction
dialog box. Click REAL64 FORMAT and change it to STRING
FORMAT, as shown in
Figure 132.

4 All of the other defaults are correct, so click OK to close the
I/O Transaction box. The transaction bar in the From File
object should now contain the statement READ TEXT x STR.
