Hi Ghatig,

It is great to hear that the PCI-DIO-96 is working in Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX), as this is an essential interaction between the driver calls and the hardware. Visual Basic by nature will not auto-populate a text box used for the device name and channel, as MAX does. The channel list will need to be input manually declaring ports and lines (I.E - "Dev1/port0/line0:7"). If this is not what you are looking for, I may suggest posting screenshots to help describe the issue you are seeing. Feel free to be as detailed as possible to help describe what is happening, and what you are looking for.

Regards,

Hi

as David had said auto population wont be possible in VB. You should a normal string constant instead of property page.
