I am doing a Weather Data Log exercise, and I am looking for the program to run continuously. However, every time I run it, the program would always direct me to store the data in a file for every run I do. Please look at the following pic. Btw, I am running this on a Mac, using parallel's desktop, I don't know if that information may help.

Can you post the code?
 
How are you going to log data to a file continuously? How big will the file get?
