RS Logix: Transporting Variables into a data table

In order to do a direct import you will have to save your program as a .SLC library file. The edit the library file in word. Once you open up the .SLC file you will see the data tables and their format. You can then cut and paste into the data table in the .SLC text file. Save this and then reopen your program from the .SLC file and save as a Logix 500 file.

I'm not sure he's talking about the library tables. I think he might be talking about topic configuration and dde.
What exactly are you trying to import into the data tables? What are you trying to do? What outcome are you looking for?

You can set up DDE between Excel and RSLinx (Gateway or Pro) to move the numbers for you.

It will not work with RSLinx Lite.

If you have a version of ESLinx that supports it, look up DDE and Excel in the RSLinx help system.

There are examples there that are pretty easy to follow.
