Willy,

Need some more info. Expand the ' Explain error' and get some more details as to which VI is giving the error.

Also Check whether you have any VI's with invalid Help paths. check in "VI Properties>>Documentation.

Saw the following Ad. in ni.com. http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/1675

Anyway right now clicking on this takes you to LV 8 page...

Hey Mike - are new users forwarded on to the LAVA guidlines page after they join? Maybe we need a "I aggree / I disagree" dissemintation so we have grounds to beat them up if they don't follow them...

I remember seeing a post where someone was suggesting a forum for these poor souls...not a bad idea though

hi,

I came across with problem when saving a file to a specify file path.

when my data is saved in a file path, when a new set of data is being entered, a window pop up asking: "replace existing c:\file_name?". and I have to press 'ok' button to replace it. what I want is that I want the new data to automatically replace into the same file path without that window poping out.

so what should I do to eliminate that window pop-up?

example on this kind of problem is much appreciated.

thanks..

No matter whether U read labview user manual or not before u start using it, U got to read this before you start posting here...

Guys here will not do the homework problems for U, even if they know the how to....isn't it cruel

Pay attention, this is complicated.

Open the Example Finder (Help>>Find Examples).

Go to the search tab.

Search for "Excel".

Open the example which shows how to do what you want.

Run it.

:laugh: Cool Reply....

What's happenning nowadays...is this the time when most schools give project work.... More homework hustlers these days...

By the way: where again is that setting, that an dropped sub-vi is expanded?

Hi i2dx,

If I got it right, you can go to Tools>advanced> Edit palette Set and right click on the VI icon,that needs to be "expanded" when dropped, and select the 'Merge VI' option.

I'm not going to say, "Thanks LAVA for the great pool of LV knowledge that you provide"...because, there is no need to state the OBVIOUS.

But in addition to this, now I can identify the flags of more countries than I was able to, in my non-LAVA days....

One of the Off-topic things that LAVA teaches you... :laugh:

Also thanks to WMassey who proposed this idea here and to Michael for making it a reality...

I am starting to work with the Open G development team on the Goop Libs.

But I don't have a good Idea of how many developers out there use Goop.

I set up this poll to try and get an Idea of where to start.

All the best mballa :thumbup: .

Is it possibile for you to elaborate on the features/improvements that you are trying to provide?

nudalAKasim

Vladimir,

Have you tried dqGOOP. This concept is really appealing. Hope you have seen this topic.

nudalAKasim

It is amazing how one's definition of "large application" and "best coding practices" change with experience.

Well said Michael :thumbup: ,

I usually re-look into my old codes, and each time, believe me, I feel "WoW I've improved a lot" and have "learned new things". And I believe that this will be the case for the years to come...

BUT it has also something to do with the users acting professional and reporting the bugs found to the manufacturer instead of just beeing angry about the product.

Very true...but when deadlines are near, seeing the development environment stall and crash regularly makes one go maaadddd

It seems life will just pass on in"Investigating Internal errors" and "Telling Microsoft abuot my problem".... :headbang:

"LV 8.0.1/8.1", Where are you ?

nudalAKasim

Once when I was hard pressed for processor time :headbang: , turning off "Themes" service(WinXP) gave me some breathing space...though still I don't have a clue HOW?

(I can hear my old programming teacher who'd worked on ENIAC spinning in his grave: "Every bit is sacred!")

Hi!

I have a LabView VI which has a sub-routine in it. Within this sub-routine, want to use keyboard commands. (The whole sub-routine is within "True" of a True/False case structure, and therefore only executed if I press a button on the front panel and make it "True"). In order to use keyboard commands, I use the "Key Down?" event case within the sub-routine. This works fine when I am within the sub-routine. When I am in main program, though, the VI immediately stalls whenever I press a key on the keyboard (as if it wanted to execute the "Key Down?" event case, but can't. How does it know there is a key down event there, anyway?).

My question: how can I solve this bug? When I delete the "Key Down?" event case from the sub routine, the main program works fine, but that's of course not the solution that I want.

If I got you correctly,

You are using a sub routine(Sub VI?) which has an event struct , inside the 'true' case of a main vi and as soon as you run your main VI, the control goes to the true case and the sub VI executes. Here it will wait for a key down event...Now if you look more closely at the event it's source is "THIS VI'. So the event structure will trap events only if the 'Sub routine" is the active window, which means that the program is behaving as it is expected to. So either you can pop up the sub VI or try to trap the event in the main VI itself.

Ive been doing those like example things on LabVIEW and ive gotten to one and it tells me half way through that i dont have the devices for the Voltage that I am trying to measure. Will i have to wait till my robot is built for that, or is there something else i need to get with LabVIEW.

thanks

Droopy,

To measure voltage you require a card( or device), no doubt, but to run the program without errors, you can use simulated devices, which you can create using NI-MAX. See attached image. Here I assumed that you are using DAQmx...if not this cannot be done..You probably have to wait till you get your Robot(device?) is ready .
