I have an exe of a VI that we use to test air handling products at my work. Once a test is sucessfully completed, the VI prints 3 labels to a label printer. This all works fine. Recently, I tried adding an SMTP e-mail procedure to e-mail me this label (in an .xls file format) - this works, but also e-mail me a PDF of one of the graphs (all data gets sent to a blackberry phone as well, and that cannot open an .xls file formatted graph, the data is fine, but the graphs won't display). In the VI, using the "Print Report.vi" command, a pop-up will come up and ask me where I'd like to save my PDF, and this all works fine - it will e-mail me this file as well. BUT the pop-up never happens in the exe and the program gets an error when it trys to e--mail me this PDF file that doesn't exist (at least in the directory from which the exe is looking for it.

Any advice?
