Daklu, Perhaps this might make things more clear on how the flow is supposed to go between the dynamic and main VI

Well I suppose I'll be the first to chime in and give some direction. I have 2 major concerns and confusions on how to handle. Dealing with a variety of instruments of varying and similar types and how to deal w/ different but overlapping configurations and secondly, dealing w/ sets of objects when trying to handle complex data sets in which the sets have similar and overlapping properties but I don't want to replicate datasets due to size. Got any slides for that?

I don't have a direct use, but the Code repository in work or simply posting it here can get you a ton of feedback and suggestions for potential better mousetraps for what you are trying to do.

Hmmm... now I'm all confused. NI's web page says Basics is enough. but on the PDF spec of the course says Intermediate or better required. Maybe I should have waited for the cruise instead of signing up for sun-mon

Although some may claim my Signal to Noise ratio on posts is a bit low, I've finally cracked 500 posts. So in honor of the occaision, The Captain Avatar finally gets a face lift. Some Botox and a little extruding later... Thank you all for making this such an awesome community to interact with. Just the perfect mix of nutcases and geniuses! (which in this case both sets are mutually inclusive)

Well boy didn't this thread die out. I've got something for y'all to ponder the pojundery Should/Could we try to get the same functionality out of the other columns in a tree control? I've got a situation where having glyphs or indentations in those other columns would come in handy. I realize I could try to do this w/ 2 separate tree controls or a variety of combination's, but to pull it off in 1 control would be pretty darn cool!!

That was very surprising to hear that callees did not return the missing VIs in it's array.... but I believe that I have found a potential work around (using some hidden properties) What this does is caches and clears the search paths so the app doesn't spend 10 min searching your HD for a file that we already know probably doesn't exist. Opens a ref to the VI and lists any issues w/ links to other VIs then it sets the search paths back. Give this a shot and be careful on the rusty nails coming up out of the floor boards {See link for nail ref} (New link to scripting subforum after rusty nails was merged)

It says that all that is required is LV basics. Will this be too basic of stuff to keep me interested? I'm sure Mikael is a great instructor, but if the material isn't heavy duty I may need to bring extra coffee.

QUOTE (hfettig @ Jul 25 2008, 08:01 AM) I bet that this is already in the works, but don't quote me on that. As a minimum, get involved in the LV scripting end of things on the forum. Turns out that by using the [selected] property of a FP or BD you can do wonderful things w/ some Very simple code assuming you've selected all the same type of control. See below. I agree that it's not as simple as having it native, but it gets you close to the point of only making it a minor annoyance rather than reaching the level of peeve. http://content.screencast.com/users/NJKirchner/folders/Jing/media/b0e2f532-64dd-420f-8817-32767a4e4206/2008-07-25_1102.png' rel='nofollow'>

Sorry about messing up the t-shirt image & all the posts. Thought you would be able to see both sides. Here is the back view.

QUOTE For who, the bar or me? HAHAHAHA I'm there. Might be Sunday to Thursday or Tuesday through the weekend. @ the hilton Do a google calendar search for Captain's NI Week 08. I'm worldwide baby!!

It sounds like you're about to head down the suggested path, but before you get too far you may want to think about "LVx - Exported Functions" that will give you almost this functionality but even more. http://forums.lavag.org/LVx-Exported-LV-Fu...lity-t9437.html By setting up an exported function to stop the VI, you can have the stopping VI return it's data through the existing process within LVx. This will also work w/ multiple cloned clients.

I've got mine!!! Now I'm sure everyone will want one of their own

Don't worry, I'm sure Mike will block me soon

I love tagging!!!

For those of you not using Jott and Google Calendar, and are attending NI-Week this year... I suggest you get on the bus. I am a real mess...horrible at planning and remembering times dates people and places. BUT!!! I found that using 2 tools (FREE) I have been able to get my proverbial "shit together" JOTT: Need to remember a conversation you just had, or something that you or someone else said, or promised to do or follow up? Call a toll free # on your phone and leave a voice jott for yourself. It's kind of like leaving a voice mail for yourself... but check this shit out... AUTOMATICALLY VOICE TRANSCRIBES your message and makes it available online and you can attach reminders that get sent via SMS and e-mail!!! why you should care: How often have you met someone or said you would meet someone or send someone something, only to get really A.D.D. and forget 2 seconds after walking away. especially at the worlds biggest distraction for techies a.k.a. NI week GCal (google calendar) Awesome tool for general calendar tracking, but the 3 things that make it stand out amongst the rest Sends Free SMS reminders to your cell reminding you of that important session you didn't want to miss, along w/ the room or whatever details you want Integrates with microsoft outlook so you can get your regular meetings SMS'd to your phone Integrates with JOTT!!!! so that you can actually set meeting VIA VOICE!! w/out ever needing to touch a computer Also you can share your calendars or add other peoples shared calendars to yourself so if your trying to aligh meetings or follow a specific meeting track that someone else might post as a public calendar, you can now see it on yours. Just a friendly Pulblic Service Announcement from the Captain The Captain was here ~,~ PS: both tools kick ###### when integrating into blackberry and iPhone

Damn.... this is harder than it seems at first.

You do the exact same thing you're doing now, just change the logic to compare the number and pick the right color accordingly Hope you get an A on the homework!

If you put Allowmultipleinstances=true in your built exe's ini file IT WILL WORK if you look at the soft front panels that NI makes for things like their DMMs, they use that exact same ini so that we can have multiple dmm panels open at a time. So since NI does it why shouldn't we. It's much more elegant than making copies of EXEs

Thanks Ton, I wasn't even sure how to reply to that one..... since they sent almost the exact same example!!

QUOTE (kmc @ Jul 17 2008, 07:26 AM) What you are asking for is not clear because I have run your program and it does exactly what you are asking for. It takes a 2d string array and makes all things Equal to PASS green and everything else red whilst keeping the header row/column the system color. So if your example already demonstrates what you want, what is your need?
