Error When Building EXE for PDA

[Wizbit]

i am trying to build an exe to go onto a PDA using the Labview PDA module but when ever i have a tab container in the code i get the following error when trying to build the EXE in device mode and emualtor mode

cosm5432_ctlid missing VI or C file

if i delete the tab container i dont get any errors and it builds with no trouble and downloads onto the PDA no problems

can anyone on here shed any light on this problem

where can i find this missing file/VI i have searched the NI website but have drawn a blank

thanks in advance

Not an answer but a suggestion, but their are two types of tab containers in Stanf=dard LV. One is from LV, the other is OS. They are found in the "Array & Cluster Controls" and the "Dialog Controls" palettes respectively. Perhaps try the other one?

Hang on! Doesn't the PDA module give you a new set of controls? Are you starting from a "New PDA VI" or just building it from scratch? Perhaps this might explain it?

cheers, Alex.

Cheers for your reply

im am using labview wiht the exeuction target set to Pocket PC 2003 device and as a result there is only one tab coniter avaliable which is in the containers pallet

i am building the VI from scratch but it has always been built in the correct execution target ie pocket PC 2003 device (not for windows execution)

i get the same error in both device and emualtor mode

Okay sorted the problem

i had a picture logo in each page of the tab container and this was causing the error

with the pictures deleted it builds fine

when the pictures are grouped with variuos other decortions i get the errors and it will not build

if i ungroup the pictures then it will build but the picturs do not download on the the PDA

how can i get the picturs to show on the PDA exe??

I ran into a similar error citing the GetAttribute function. After talking to NI tech support, I suspect there's a problem with the .lsb resource file (a special compilation of the C source file that loads into a CIN). I had to devise a workaround to get an initial timestamp from a CAN PCMCIA card because the Time/Date functions don't work properly in the context of my application code, producing dates/times exactly 66 years in the future (ok, sometimes exactly 66 years and one day in the future).

If you attempt to do any DAQ with this thing be prepared for torturous time. :headbang:
