Basic I coursework installed. How do you launch LabVIEW?

[James Plante]

I have installed the LabVIEW Basic I course work from the CD.  How do I launch the "Getting Started" window to begin the course?  There is no icon on the desktop, start menu or in the programs folder other than the National Instruments menu for Dataq Socket

Perhaps a dumb question, but perhaps it's the obvious question: do you actually have LabVIEW installed? The courses don't come with LabVIEW. It's like buying a book that teaches C - these books typically don't contain a compiler.

The LabVIEW Basics CD contains the coursework, not LabVIEW.  It's saying I installed some .xls files from a CD, now what?  Well, you open them in Excel.  Likewise, you will open the coursework VIs and LLBs in LabVIEW.

Hope that this helps,

Boy was that obvious;-)  Thanks for the kick
