Cannot find ExcelExamples.llb in LV2013

[V-Rob]

Hello all!

I have an old VI that I'm trying to open. I am missing the "LabVIEW 2013/Examples/comm" folder and the file ExcelExamples.llb that should reside there.

My questions are;

Do I have to load a toolkit to get this file and which toolkit do I need?

Did this file come standard in older ver of LV?  ( I used to have the file but I don't remember loading a toolkit)

Thanks for addressing this boring question.

Those examples were removed in LabVIEW 2013 and later. The comparable examples are now located here:

[LabVIEW 2013 and later]\examples\Connectivity\Excel

If you can't find what you need in there, I've attached the ExcelExamples.llb from LabVIEW 2012 to this reply.

Also, as a general rule, your code probably shouldn't link to stuff in the 'examples' folder. Make (renamed) copies of whatever you need from there and distribute the copy with your code.
