Report Generation Toolkit, Print Excel Report, LabVIEW Crash

[Daniel_Leadec]

Hello,

when printing a report generated with the report generation toolkit for excel my build application crashes on our customers PC.

When I run this application on my PC it works fine.

The problem is the active X invoke node that trys to print the report but i cant get any error messages to find out where to locate the problem.

Maybe that there is a problem with the active X node or the Excel Version on the customers PC?

I use LabVIEW 2010 and Excel 2007 the customer has Excel 2003 SP 3.

I changed the report to generate it in Word where the Print_Report.vi fine on both PCs. But in Word Report there is called another active X invoke node to print the Report. So it seems for me that there really is a problem with the Print in Excel active X invoke node.

Mybe someon can help me in finding out whats the problem.

Greetings Daniel.

Hi Daniel,

your behavior has been reported by others. For example:

Application Build Failure on Excel.Print Report call

Workaround posted: 06-01-2011 and later

So their workaround was to use Excel 2007 or 2010 instead of 2003. Is this working for your customer?

Best Regards,

Jan
