Title: avoid direct excel connection pluging making new file at 00:00 Post by: Pblanckaert on November 25, 2013, 01:36:47 PM I'm using the advanced serial data logger with the direct excel connection plugin. My data is sent to an excel template (3 screenshots with the used settings are shown in the attachment). Unfortunately, with these settings, the pluging automatically makes a new file at 00:00. Is there a way to avoid this?
My excel files need to contain the date of the measurement start in the file name. Background info: I need my excel log files to contain 1 full day of data and start and ends +- at 23:00. I'm using a .bat file in the windows task scheduler (exit aggsoft (TASKKILL /IM asdlog.exe) to stop the advanced serial data logger at 23:00. A few minutes later the task scheduler restarts the advanced serial data logger. This works fine but with the pluging automatically making a new file at 00:00 I now have 2 data files each day: one from +- 23:00 till 00:00 and one from 00:00 till 23:00. I absolutely need the data to be from 23:00 tilll 23:00 the next day. files from 00:00 till 00:00 the next day do not work for me. Thanks for any help.

Second screenhost -> Date stamp -> Clear the field. Now, the program will not create a new log file every day. Title: Re: avoid direct excel connection pluging making new file at 00:00 Post by: Pblanckaert on November 25, 2013, 01:47:20 PM Hello Arthur,
Will the excel file then still be given a name containing the data of the measurement start?

If you need the date of the measurement start, you may analyze the file creation date.
