Creating selective options tab for EXE for different VIs

[Haristhota]

I have two different VIs which executes two different methods for the same measurement.

Right now, I have created two separate EXEs and they are working well.

I would like to create single EXE file for both the VIs with an "Options tab" (pop up tab after double-clicking the program) 

so that I can select one of the two methods depending on the requirement,

Please suggest me a way to do the aforementioned task.

Hi Haristhota,

seems very simple:

1. show an options dialog window right after starting your program (I would use a boolean button to choose between two options)

2. call the "method" selected by the user (I would use a case structure here)

So what is your problem? Where are you stuck?

hi there,

that should be straight forward.

create a "main" VI, where you have the user-interface-logic to select which of your two measurement methods you want to use, then have for example a case structue and in one case you put the first vi in another case the second.

in the build specifications you select your new main-VI, the others will be automatically referenced because they are in the main-VI.

build you exe, and that sould be it
