Hello
I have a monitoring software developed in LabWindows CVI version 9.0. Software is complex and composed of different threads, instruments, activeX and SQL toolkit commands. When releasing new versions, I ussualy build a realease .EXE and replace it in program folder.
Software is running in 71 machines that are in production so I cannot perform long maintenance stops.
I want to upgrade it to CVI2012. I created a new distribution and Installed it in a new PC and it is working OK.
However I also want to run it in old PCs with CVI9.0 installation (by replacing the exe file, so I avoid to perform a complete installation) .
To allow this I downloaded and Installed Run-Time Engine 2012 in that machines and the software seems to work well.
However I realize that SQL toolkit commands are not working at all. Any ideas?
Thanks for your help

Hi barahonita,
Have you try binding your executable to side-by-side Run-Time Engine???
You can try this option to bind your entire application to another Run-Time Engine version, CVI 9.0 for example. Remember you need to include your side-by-side RTE in your installer. I share you a link with all the information for this proccess and concept:

You can Change this setting in Build>Target Settings.
I hope this information helps you...
