I would just use a strict typdef enum along with "Format into String" and "Scan from String". A change to the lower level API would only require updating the typdef.

For basic architecture and programming techniques, I still like "A Software Engineering Approach to LabVIEW". It predates event structures and LVOOP, but makes you think about the same sorts of issues such as loose coupling and strong cohesion. These same ideas apply to database design. http://www.amazon.com/Software-Engineering-Approach-LabVIEW/dp/0130093653

I don't know how you would do this offline. As I stated, you must have internet access because it uses the Google Charts API.

If you have an active internet connection, you can use this VI. It uses Datasocket and the Google Chart API. Create QR Code.vi (LV 8.6)

I don't think O'Dwyer is really that naive, and I bet his shirt is not a licensed Disney product. The Mickey Mouse Protection Act has been subverted! Damn pirates taking food from the mouths of the 1%!

Getting old, I posted in that thread but didn't remember it. Where is the smiley with grey beard?

Curious; just noticed a private method App.CreateGUID. (LV8.6) Is this present on Mac as well?

Examples I provide here or on the dark side are usually created from scratch. Maybe a LAVAG template VI with the appropriate verbage would be appropriate? Create VI from template, upload with (choose your method).

I read this on the dark side. It seems you don't need the DSC Module installed to have the cool pipes on the front panel. They appear to be Booleans... http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Creating-an-illuminated-flowpath-on-the-front-panel/m-p/1762976#M614075 Still don't know about the licensing...

Almost looks like regex inside a perl script! Just remembered a tweet I read a few days ago: "The saddest thing in computing is that the same functionality keeps getting reimplemented (poorly) in different languages."

@Tim What was the final result?

You can use the example VI on the NI Community forum to send email messages via GMAIL. http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-2401 If you want to send HTML in the body of the message, you would need to modify the example to set the MailMessage IsBodyHtml property to TRUE.

I've worked with people that had years of experience and never knew that. Don't feel bad that you couldn't remember something that a considerable number of people don't know.
