Application subvi works fine in LV but not in exe

Solved!
Go to solution

I have an application where I call a "display results" vi that resides inside of a T/F case structure. In the development environment it works fine but in the exe it doesn't work. The front panel appears but it doesn' really "run". I've checked my properties, paths, etc. I'm clueless. Thanks in advance.

Check the error wire that enters the VI which pops up. Classic problem to have an error condition in a exe caused by some other build/path related issue.

We are probably going to need to see some code

Don't you worry. It's the error wire. Smiley Tongue

Exactly. Error message pointed right to it. What's strange is that it works in the development system. It should not have for the same reason.

The application builder is a life-form of its own.

Full of mysterios little quirks and lots of deciet and trickery are needed to outmanuver it.

It's zen-like in its slowness but still ready to bite any second you look away taking another sip of coffe.
