I am trying to read the waveform from USB which I have programmed using labview. I should connect this USB to Rigol waveform generator. I have already installed VISA in my computer. Could anyone give me instructions on what to do next?

First I would search here to see if there is an instrument driver available for your Rigol. If there isn't I would check with Rigol to see if they have one available.
If they don't have anything available you will have to write your own. Read through the links located at the bottom of the page I linked to get you started.

Thank you! I checked this. I have already downloaded and installed the VISA required for connection. Also, could you please check Help-Find Instruments Drivers in Labview(I use 2010) ? I found something about Rigol here also. Then, I installed it as well. Please let me know if you find anything helpful.
Thank you once again.

I mean, Programmed in LABVIEW. forget USB here. I will need USB to transfer data from my program to Rigol Waveform Generator. I just need help in this process. Thank you for your concers. I would appreciate if you have easy ideas.

If you downloaded an instrument driver that matches the model number of your instrument they usually come with examples. I have no idea what you downloaded and you never mentioned the instrument model. On the link I posted earlier there are tutorials on what drivers are and how to use them. Feel free to post specific questions.
