Hi Tom,
That is absolutely brilliant! Just what I was looking for.
It looks really straightforward, once I've extracted the
spreadsheet info.
I'll let you know how it goes
Cheers,
Ian

Hi Ian,
One option would be to do the Excel reading in Python then use
https://github.com/dls-controls/epicsdbbuilder to do the
db writing. It uses dbStatic calls to load a DBD file, then
check that the records being produced are valid and have valid
values.
Thanks,
Tom
I'm interested to know whether anyone
has developed a mechanism for
creating a .db file of EPICS records from information
(record names,
fields and associated values) stored in an Excel
spreadsheet?
Just trying to avoid re-inventing the proverbial wheel.
Thanks,
Ian Gillingham
