How to know what version of DIAdem is being called by LabVIEW

[TheStrangeQuark]

Hello,

I wasn't sure if I should ask this in the DIAdem forum or LabVIEW forum. I have a LabVIEW script which is opening DIAdem data file, report file, and script. I have DIAdem 2012 and DIAdem 2015 installed on my computer. Is there a way to know which DIAdem is being used when LabVIEW runs this code?

What are you using to call DIAdem in LabVIEW?  There may be a method included in whatever library/palette in LabVIEW that you are using to retrieve the version information from DIAdem.

I'm using `DIAdem Open Reference.vi`

Hi,

It's always the last opened version. I'm not sure if there is a way to choose what version to use exactly.

Regards

You could try this function:

Which is documented to output the version and revision of the DIAdem application that is open.
