How to run a vi from Java application?

[Gaurav]

I am passing data to a vi from my java swing application using data socket bean but I have to manually open and run the vi. How can I programatically open and run the vi from my java application without using ActiveX automation server?

I don't know Java but if you can issue a shell command then you can run the VI with the command line:

"\labview.exe" ""

You have to set the VI to "Run when opened". The VI will run each time the command is issued, even if the VI is already opened.
