This bug has been fixed in LabVIEW 8.20 and NI-DAQ 8.3. Installing NI-DAQ 8.3 and using it a version of LV < 8.20 will still show the problem. Using a version of NI-DAQ < 8.3 with LV 8.20 will also show the problem.

Good catch. We have verified that this is in fact a bug with the ways in which paths are formed in certain situations. We are looking into a solution to this issue and hope to have it resolved in a subsequent DAQmx/LabVIEW release. In the mean time there are two ways to work around this bug 1. Modify the build spec's "Destinations->Support Directory" to be a sub-directory of the "Destinations->Destination Directory" location. "data" is the default sub-directory when a build spec is created. 2. After building the app, hand edit the <application name>.ini file and change the NI-DAQmx.ApplicationStorageFile key to be an absolute path to the .ini file or a relative path to the .ini file without a ".\" before the path
