Solution
This error occurs when the specified path does not exist. This VI will not create a path for you; for example, if the path specified is
C:\Data\Today\Document1.xls and there is no
Today folder in
C:\Data , this error message will occur.
To resolve the issue you can:
- Manually create the appropriate directory using your operating system's file explorer.
- Change the specified directory within your LabVIEW program to a valid directory.
- If the full file path already exists, ensure you are referencing the file with the correct spelling and syntax.
- If you are reading from/writing to a file on a Real-Time target, ensure that the format of the file path matches the requirements for the Operating System. See Working with File Paths on Real-Time Targets for more information.
