Command: DataBlCopy

Copies a data block from channels and inserts the data block into other channels. DIAdem overwrites existing values.

Input Parameters

ChnList	Specifies one or more channels. Channel list variable A channel list is a Channel or Channel list object, or a text that refers to one or several channels. For more information about the value range, refer to Channel lists.
ChnRow	Specifies the row number in a channel. Longinteger variable 1 <= ChnRow <= GlobChnLength
ValNo	Specifies the number of values in a channel. Longinteger variable 1 <= ValNo <= GlobChnLength
ChnList1	Specifies one or more channels. Channel list variable A channel list is a Channel or Channel list object, or a text that refers to one or several channels. For more information about the value range, refer to Channel lists.
TargetLine	Specifies the row number in the target channel. Longinteger variable 1 <= TargetLine <= GlobChnLength

The ChnList variable specifies the channels of the source block. The ChnList1 variable specifies the channels of the target block.

Note The DataBlCopy command replaces the DataAreaCopy command. The order of the channels you use is not always the same as the displayed order in the Data Portal. The number of source and target channels must be identical. You cannot perform block operations on text channels.

Example

Starting at the third line, the following example copies 10 values from the channels with the names Channel1 and Channel2 in the first group of the Data Portal and overwrites the values of the first two channels in the second group with these values starting at the second line.

Dim oMyChannelList1, oMyChannelList2
Set oMyChannelList1 = Data.GetChannels("[1]/Channel1")
Call oMyChannelList1.Add(Data.Root.ChannelGroups(1).Channels("Channel2"))
Set oMyChannelList2 = Data.GetChannels("[2]/[1]")
Call oMyChannelList2.Add(Data.Root.ChannelGroups(2).Channels(2))
Call DataBlCopy(oMyChannelList1, 3, 10, oMyChannelList2, 2)

oMyChannelList1 = dd.Data.GetChannels("[1]/Channel1") 
oMyChannelList1.Add(dd.Data.Root.ChannelGroups(1).Channels("Channel2")) 
oMyChannelList2 = dd.Data.GetChannels("[2]/[1]") 
oMyChannelList2.Add(dd.Data.Root.ChannelGroups(2).Channels(2)) 
dd.DataBlCopy(oMyChannelList1, 3, 10, oMyChannelList2, 2)
