Changing the name of serial communication example in lab windows. Urgent help required

[samiii]

I am using the example of getting data from rs 232 in lab windows. I want to use this in my final year project that's why I want to change its name that appears as  "serial communication example" how can I change its name and how can I make its exe file that will run on any system even without lab windows.

How can I modify this example to save the data. I am very new to lab windows, I was using hyper terminal previously.

(1) Change the panel title of the serial.uir to something else.

(2) Running an EXE built with CVI requires that at least the CVI Run-Time Engine is installed on that PC.

(3) CVI comes with a File I/O that contains all you need.

the title is not getting changed. i have tried to click at tiltle but it is not having any text format in it.

If you haven't worked with CVI right now: Have a look at the "Getting Started with LabWindows/CVI" manual that comes with CVI.  This thoroughly answers all basic questions.

yes i got 🙂 thank you

can i save the data that i receive from my com port,as i was able to save the data in hyperterminal. can i also save in it.

I am not informed about the file format that hyperterminal uses.  However, CVI allows wiring to files.  To get a list of functions that deal with file handling, press <Ctrl-Shift-p> to get the "Find Function Panel" dialog.  Type in "file" and press the "Find" button.  This will open a list of funtions that contain "file" in their name.
