How to save Labview inbuilt Vis as a separate folder in a project

Hi, I am using STM Reference Library Vis which does not come inbuilt in Labview.So I installed VI Packet Manager and downloaded STM Reference Library .

Problem faced:

1.I now need to use my application in other PCs.(for which i build an installer.

2.But I also need to include Stm Reference Library.

I thought of saving the specific Vis used in my application in my project.

Can anyone help me do it.

Can you include it in your installer?  That's a much better solution than the hack you are proposing.

I agree with Billko, and my own experience.  Whenever I build an executable, I only put the Top Level VI in the Source Files "Startup VI" entry.  All of the Dependencies, such as entries in vi.lib, user.lib, packages installed with VIPM and used in my code, etc., are automatically included in the Build.  If I'm going to another PC, I only need to ensure that the LabVIEW Run Time Engine (and possibly Device Drivers, if hardware is involved) are present.

The STM library is just a bunch of VI.  And I do not know of any part of STM that is called dynamically.  Therefore the library should just be included in the executable build automatically.  Nothing special that you need to do.
