Hola. I've got a panelview screen built out that pulls strings out of a UDT for comments of the 16 points, so I can see I/O status. I use parameter files to pick out which tag to pull this from. Pretty basic.
What I'm running into is this works fine for five cards or something, but when you have about ten times that in a project, it gets pretty tedious clicking each individual ... box and entering in the string comment over and over and over again.
If I go and export to L5K, I can get the comments to show as you see in my attached snip. The problem you see with the test1, test2, test 3 test, etc, is it fails on import, due to not entering the string length and I assume deleting out each set of $00 to correspond.
Can you think of a better way of doing this? I thought this might work ok, but if I have to sit down and count every character to build the L5K, its probably no more efficient than the manual string entry for each card.
Thanks
