I want LabVIEW run-time installer to run by default

[sdoctor]

I want to install an EXE on a PC that doesnot have LV. I want that the run-time time installation takes place by default, without showing the user the installer screen. Is this possible?

Yes this should be possible. After install, you can launch the run-time installer and pass it a command line argument which causes it to install in a silent mode. I am not sure what the command line argument is, but you should download the run-time engine and read the installation instructions. This should tell you all of the command line options.

The LabVIEW 6.0.2 update has the following options. However, I don't know if the LV Run-Time engine has them as well.

The updater may be run with the following options:
/l -- to generate a log file. To use this option from the start menu type "\setup.exe /l c:\lv602updatelog.log"
/q -- for silent installations (no user prompts)
/m- suppresses mass compilation
