Inputs/Outputs

    report in is a reference to the report whose appearance, data, and printing you want to control. Use the Create Report VI to generate this LabVIEW class object.

  • cvirn.png VI —

  • cerrcodeclst.png error in (no error) —

  • cnclst.png position (Excel) —

    position contains the row and column coordinates of the point in an Excel worksheet from which the insertion occurs.

    Row and column values in Excel are zero-based, so the row and column coordinates of (0,0) correspond to cell A1.
