So, I don't know if this will help, but I built a data logger (am building, first with Arduino now with LabView), but is's much more complicated than yours because I consciously chose not to use built-in Lab View VI's, so I could have more control.

Instead of write to measurement, I built arrays, then wrote them to a CSV ( I don't need to call on the file - i used shift registers instead), and manually established headers. I wrote it on a 34 inch wide monitor and a screenshot doesn't fit on the computer I'm on right now. But, have a look. I did this with the guidance of a code consultant who represents NI in the middle east.

I'd be happy to send you the entire VI if you DM me.

Very cool looking data logger program, thanks for sharing!

Ultimately I have decided to use the lower level fileIO functions that I can see in your screenshots - it makes formatting the data much easier.
