Hi,

Did you have a look to TrendView package? With this you can create csv =

for later examinations.
If you are interested, will send you a manual (please mail).

We use the Excel add-in in several machines to get data.  The client
machines run Excel 2000 on Windows 2000.  We have no problem, except =
Excel
opens more slowly than when the add-in is not selected.  You may want =
to
reinstall Datalink.  Make sure you remove the add-in from the deleted =
box
before reinstalling Datalink and the add-in. This add-in is a simple =
and
powerful tool, and I wished it got the information it deserves in the =
Aim*
book.

I have an AW51D (Solaris machine) and AIM*Historian running on Windows =
2000.
In order to gather historical data, I use the "Historian Browser" in
AIM*Datalink.  This method is NOT time efficient because I am unable to =
save
a query and make adjustment to the query at a later time (e.g. change =
the
time range, sample frequency, and add/subtract points). =20

I followed Section 7 of the AIM*Datalink User's Manual (B0193YJ) to =
make use
of the Historian Wizard Excel Add-In to overcome the inefficiency of =
the
"Historian Browser".  However, excel becomes very unstable (frequently
crashes) to the point that I have to remove the Add-In.

Has anyone had success with the Historian Wizard Excel Add-In?

Does anyone have a method to save a historian query so that you are =
able to
adjust the time range, sample frequency and add/subtract points at a =
later
time?  I tried to use the AIM* ODBC features, but found that the =
queries are
extremely slow and the feature is also unstable.
