I would guess it has more to do with an assembly line that just drops stuff in a box on a conveyor. To send out envelopes they would need another line with an envelope stuffer. Remember when pondering dilemas of this type that it is $$ not reason that makes the final decision. Ben

how to get rid of the internal error message?
Grampa_of_Oliva_n_Eden replied to i2dx's topic in LabVIEW General
QUOTE(i2dx @ Apr 24 2007, 03:17 PM) Check "C:\Documents and Settings\bar\My Documents\LabVIEW Data\lvfailurelog". A new files is written there for each crash. Ben -
QUOTE(crelf @ Apr 24 2007, 09:44 AM) Same here. Yes the adentures were fun but there was no oppertunity to say "NO". As a contractor. I can hit my customers with a big "$$" to convince them that they really do not want to do that. Ben

QUOTE(i2dx @ Apr 23 2007, 03:16 PM) I have to admit that is the largest "Jacobs Ladder" I have ever seen. Frankenstien would have bee pleased. About three weeks ago I was touring a cust facility that builds BIG ckt breakers. I witnessed a test of one of their breakers and loved it! The breaker tripped at 32K Amps with fire, sparks, flames. As as I was walking to the next building I explained to the group that the electrician that had recently installed a new service entrance to my home insisted that it would not pass inspection as long as there was a toilet in the corner of my basement. The test I witnessed made it clear why I had to go through what my wife called the "de-bathification" project. Sorry about no pictures to share but I do have a memory that should last a life time.

What Labview Book Would YOU recommend ?
Grampa_of_Oliva_n_Eden replied to dannyt's topic in LAVA Lounge
QUOTE(dannyt @ Mar 29 2007, 07:28 AM) Regarding Jim's book: I would like to pass on the thanks of my boss to Jim for his book. He is going to be suggesting that text for a LabVIEW based course he will be teaching at Carnegie Mellon University here in Pittsburgh PA. He did not have long to talk but was excited about it covering everything he thought he would need. Thank you Jim! Ben -
How about a non-"me too" reply? Here goes... 1) I have a note on my wall that reads "Stephen Mercer = Aristos Queue". If Stephen's posting were not as good as they are, he would not have made my wall. 2) "Stephen Mercer is the next best thing to Greg McKaskle." Thank you Stephen! Ben

QUOTE(Ben @ Apr 12 2007, 08:20 AM) Let me be the fisrt to point out an issue with my approach. I belive the proper term is "desenders" (those parts of a character that drop below the line). eg If we are typing a "y" the decender is not visable so it looks like we typed a "v". Bumping the height by one pixel partially masks the issue but there is also a slight shift in the data when the data is entered. If these two issues are of concern, then a picture indicator may have to be the "displayed object" so that we do not loose the decenders. Ben

Here is a method that may help you (warning this is more complicated than setting a property). Watch for mouse downs on the table. When detected, convert the mouse coordinates to cell row and collum. Determine size and postion of the "selected cell" and set a previously off screen string control to visable and size it and postition it over the selected cell. Fill in the text box with the contnets of the selected cell. Set key focus on the text box (which should now be over-lapping the ceel they clicked on). Watch the key strokes as long as the text box has foucus. When focus is lost copy the text box contents into the cell and then hide the text box off screen. This should work since I the table itself actually uses a motehod similar to this but uses a picture control instead of a table. have fun! Ben

Show Bloc Diagram without the menu
Grampa_of_Oliva_n_Eden replied to lraynal's topic in VI Scripting
QUOTE(lraynal @ Apr 10 2007, 09:44 AM) Either find the VI's icon in another diagram (new VI drop VI in question ) or find the VI in the hiearchy. It either a crtl or a shift double click to open the diagram. Ben -
Well now that it is public I can talk. For all of you that appreciate the Bug List of the 8.2.1 release, please take the time to "pat yourselves on the back". That list is the end effect of all of the Bug Reporting that the LV users have taken part in. So yes "thank you NI" but also "Thank you Bug-Hunters". Ben

QUOTE(Tomi Maila @ Apr 8 2007, 04:07 AM) I do not kow if that indicates anything good or bad about LV. Searching for "Toilet paper", "sex" and "beer" gives similar curves. Should I interpret that as indicating those items are becoming less popular? Ben
