Hello, I am not familiar with the 370A, but it looks like it is connected via GPIB.  If you can communicate with it, then you can probably read the values off of it.  To figure out the commands, they are probably in the manual.  As for the excel, there are two main options.  The first is to save all of the files as comma seperated values and write usign the Write to Spreadsheet file.  (you could also use another delimeter other than commas)  The other option is to use the Report Generation Toolkit to write directly into Excel.  Does this help?

If you're asking whether the curve tracer can save Excel files, then you need to check the manual. Given its age, I'd doubt it. It probably allows you to save the data to its floppy in text-format. You can check the <a href="http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.model_page?p_model_id=2287" target="_blank">available drivers</a> to see if there's a VI that will allow you to get the data with LabVIEW and save it to file. You can then use the Write to Spreadsheet File to save to a text file that can be opened with Excel. That's the easiest.

i&nbsp;downloaded the tk370 driver and was able to modify one of the .vi files to use the write to spreadsheet file function.
