Hello,
I am new to Measurement Studio and this community and I am currently faced with upgrading legacy code. Is there a conversion process from existing Measurement Studio ActiveX controls to the native .NET libraries? Or must this be done manually?
Regards,
Ben

Hey Ben,
Check out this help page. What version are you updating to and from?

Hello Ren,
Thanks for the reply.
In the legacy code, there is an ActiveX control "CWDAQ" (measurement studio vers. 6.0 (602)) (.dll circa 2003) that was integrated into Visual Studio .NET. And there are existing properties to these counters I need to migrate to native .NET without changing their behavior. Is there a way to generate DAQmx .NET code from existing ActiveX CWDAQ controls? Attached is a screen capture I stitched of an ActiveX counter's properties. Thanks!

Hi Breyn,
Thanks for the clarification. The CWDAQ is part of Traditional NI-DAQ, which is very different from DAQmx. Unfortunately you can't generate DAQmx .NET code from it. This needs to be done manually.
