Can I make a VI that's runnable on cmd.exe?

[iCat]

I want to make a VI that accepts command line arguments and prints out the result on stdout.

I also want it to be runnable on cmd.exe.

I want such a command as "A.vi arg1 arg2 arg3" to produce some texts on stdout.

Is it possible?

Hi

You can use some ideas from the following link http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/17C3AD70493CE0208625666A00763364 to pass arguments to labview.

Using System Exec.vi you can view the output of the command on the stdout terminal.

Also, have a look at this:-

The VI is in labview version 4. Can you convert it to a later version (8 or above)?
