Read/Write Anything

MGI Read Anything

This VI is designed to read data from a file written by Write Anything.vi. If the data type definition has changed since it was written to file, this VI will still read and fill out any elements of the cluster that have the same name. Any elements for which it cannot find a name match in the file will be supplied with their datatype's default value if Use Supplied is false. If "Use Supplied" is true, any elements whose name is not found in the file will use the data in the corresponding field of Type of Anything. "Read/Write Options (Version 1.x)" is used if the file at the specified Path was written with MGI Write Anything version 1.x. If the file was written with MGI Write Anything Version 2.0 or later, than the "Read/Write Options (Version 1.x)" input is ignored since these parameters are stored in the data file itself.

MGI Write Anything

This VI is designed to write any data type to an INI file in human readable form. It will overwrite any data in the specified section of the INI file but leave other sections unchanged.
