This is 8 years old, but still a very useful hint !!! Many thanks!

ZITAT(i2dx @ Dec 30 2004, 09:38 AM) Hi i2dx, you ADO Toolkit on your homepage is very good and helpful. Thanks a lot for this Uli

ZITAT(crelf @ Jun 12 2007, 03:02 PM) You're absolutly right with Labview, but my colleague doesn't want to have it comfortable . He prefers to program 30 minutes for a XY Graph rather then to have the same result in Labview after 2 minutes (that's fun with him, we are joking every day) have a nice weekend Uli

Hi Lorenz, thanks for hint. I turned it off. Let's see what will happen. Have a nice day Uli

Hi Lorenz, thanks for your help! Does it only occur on boot? no, during boot, while running and during shut down. If you go to service control center (Start Menu->Control Panel->Administrative tools->services) and start/restart "National Instruments Variable Engine" does it crash then too? No, the service stops and starts again succesfully. what libs (with variables and/or I\O Servers) do you currently have deployed. You can check with Variable Manager (Tools->Shared Variable->Variable Manager)? I can see nothing in the variable manager, and we don't use shared variables. What are the specs of the machines you are seeing the crash on (CPU speed, ram, how many CPUs, winxp?) the spec of my office PC: CPU:1.8GHz, 1GByte RAM, 1 CPU, WIN2000 the second one is an office PC from my colleague (similar to my PC) the third is an older Lab PC. All have WIN2000. Many thanks and have a nice day

Hi all, sometimes we get a mysterious error message (see attachment), which we don't understand. But still everthing works fine, so the error doesn't really matter. Sometimes the error occurs when we start a PC, sometimes when the PC is running and somethimes when the PC shuts down. This happend on three PCs. Two have the LV 8.2.1 PDS version and one have only the run time enginge 8.2. I already asked NI. They don't know the error. Have a nice day Uli

Hello all, the installation was no problem. See you Uli

Hi, my colleague always laughs at LabVIEW. He says that I'm just painting pictures similar to powerpoint foils. He prefers HP Basic where he is "close to the hardware". I'm glad that LabVIEW is close to the hardware so if have time to program the important things

it must only be the PDS peopel who got the nifty carrying case.... Hi, I have the PDS 8.2 Version with SSP, but I've got no nifty carrying case. Just the common yellow-white cardboard box. have a nice day Ulrich

My colleguage and I got our LV 8.20 Versions End of August.

Hi Pjotr, we had the same problem. For LV 8.0 we COPY the whole Run time directory to the local hard disk and also copy the LV exe files in the same directory. For our applications this works. I hope for you too. Good luck Ulrich

One question I do have - how would I set current boolean states of LEDs based on what is in an array cell? I.e. how would I link an array cell to a boolean indicator? Hi bwgames, i hope i understood you and this vi can help you. have a nice day Ulrich Download File:post-3940-1156946142.vi

Hi bwgames, welcome to lava!!! "I want to be able to read the serial port and use the info to affect indicators whilst at the same time acting on any changes by the user to the FP." e.g. you can run a sub VI dynamically for reading the serial port, while the main vi is acting on FP changes. "(even though it gets horribly complex with ~40 buttons, each one wired to its own case statement - there must be a easier way?)" You can put all buttons in one case. See the attachment. hope it's helpful for you Ulrich Download File:post-3940-1156855192.vi

Hi c2r, the gray background is a bug. see also Buglist LV 8 have a nice day Ulrich
