Congratulations! "I raise and breed tarantulas" - Why?? I also received my CLD today. Now it's time to start preparing for the CLA.

How long did this take you? My advice is keep it simple and get it done. Clean code with good documentation. Clever will waste your time and leave you with an incomplete project that isn't fully documented. One quick comment, the "Standard State Machine.vi" has a three deep case structure in the "Update" case. Use the "select" function in the comparison palellete for a cleaner and more readable vi.

QUOTE (GregG @ Jan 12 2009, 12:29 PM) No LVRT. I have DevSuite installed with LabVIEW 8.6 PDS. I never figured out what the culprit was. I sent code into NI that was causing the problem, but due to some organizational issues on my part the submission was incomplete. By the time I got my code structure fixed, I figured that NI had the problem corrected. What do you mean by scan engine?

I had the same error, but it was fatal for my build. Same solution as yours. QUOTE (PeterB @ Jan 11 2009, 06:55 PM)

QUOTE (zmarcoz @ Jan 4 2009, 01:26 AM) The CLAD is supposed to show that you have a good understanding of the basics of LabVIEW and the CLD shows that you are at a professional level. Don't waste your money on the exams until your LabVIEW knowledge matches the exam. You should concentrate on learning the concepts to pass the CLAD first. LabVIEW for Everyone is a good place to start. Be on the lookout for the NI seminars. There is usually one in the spring and the last two years they have given out $200 certificates towards training or certification. Have you looked for a LabVIEW users group in your area or spoken with your local NI sales representative? These can be good sources of assistance.

The best things to study are the guides that NI provides for free online. Are you refering to the LabVIEW course books?

But, this only matters if you need to count every pulse. (No political comments please ) If you are just measuring frequency and duty cycle this shouldn't be an issue.

QUOTE (Variant @ Sep 27 2008, 10:48 AM) What you are showing are child windows. LabVIEW does not natively support child windows, but you can create them through Windows OS calls. See this http://forums.lavag.org/Simulating-MDI-interface-in-Labview-t1071.html' target="_blank">LAVA thread for more information. I would highly recommend that you look at alternatives such as tab controls and subpanels before attempting child windows in LabVIEW.

QUOTE (george seifert @ Sep 17 2008, 08:31 AM) As written the hacked "Get Report Type.vi" outputs a "Word._Document" reference. It is relativily simple to update the 5 VIs to an Excel reference (hack the hack!).

QUOTE (george seifert @ Sep 16 2008, 03:00 PM) Are you refering to http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/8D2F46628809472F862574B000534AF5' target="_blank">Getting References in Report Generation Toolkit 1.1.3 with LabVIEW 8.6? This set of VIs give access to the report reference through a hack of "Get Report Type". There are a two problems with this solution: non-standard update of the toolkit/vi.lib and it only works for Word reports. I am using Excel and I don't want to have to worry about LabVIEW updates.

Who's bright idea was it to update the Report Generation Toolkit to LVOOP? To extend the old toolkit, I could grab a reference to the report (Generate Report Get Data to Modify.vi) and call whatever MS-Office methods and properties I needed. How do I add features to the new toolkit without changing vi.lib?
