QUOTE (neB @ Aug 8 2008, 12:07 PM) I remember reading (or writing) in a forum somewhere that the primitive names in LabVIEW are not always consistent with textual languages. The (my?) example was Modulus. In LV it's Quotient & Remainder.

This is a cross-post from the dark side

Ugh. I saved the file with the wrong name; it should be RFC 1738 Put Files.vi ... I think most FTP clients default to passive (for performance).

QUOTE (Neville D @ Aug 6 2008, 06:50 PM) I just went through a similar issue with using FTP to post test results to an off-site server. I found that Active = FALSE ( or Passive) was indeed much faster from the client for LIST and PUT, but the FTP server admin asked me to use Active for security and port range issues. I included a boolean in my higher level code (and ultimately my INI file) to set this based on the conditions of the deployed environment. Active FTP vs. Passive FTP, a Definitive Explanation UPDATE: Here is an example of what I use. I wanted to be able to test the ability to connect to the FTP server independent of LabVIEW, so I created a wrapper for the function "FTP Put Multiple Files and Buffers.vi" that parses an RFC-1738 FTP URL. I check for access to the server using the exact same string from IE or FireFox. If it doesn't work from those, then I might have a firewall or proxy problem.

So, OK... my last post was lame, eh? Here is a cool web site for Torontonians. I just loaded StumbleUpon and "stumbled" onto this. I've been to Toronto a few times and its beautiful. The pictures on this sight prove it! I really like this one.

Congratulations!

It smells, is thorny (can even cut you), but contains something good inside IF you can ever get past the smell. Nice posts Bob, keep them coming...

Has anyone ever written a LabVIEW equivalent of the Microsoft Access InputMask? For the last few years I've been writing drivers and TCP comms; I've done very little with UI programming accept for a bit of XControl tinkering. I've switched jobs and now work in a LabVIEW tools group. I need to collect formatted data at a test station, and want to create something that would be general purpose and reusable. I was thinking about using control references and events to check data as its entered into a control. I would use the control 'tip' to store the Input Mask string and maybe use a 'brat' vi that I could drop on the diagram of any UI that contained a control that needed the input mask feature. The brat would search for controls with tips that contain a tagged string, something like then dynamically register for KeyDown? or maybe Value Change events from that control, then compare the input to that of the mask. No code yet, just an idea... This would be the second tool I would add to the group (1st tool added was me )

QUOTE (Aitor Solar @ Jul 10 2008, 07:47 AM) This issue was discussed in the Feature Brainstorming forum on NI (see here), but it doesn't discuss what method the final implementation uses. Good reading in any case.
