Report Generation libraries

Solved!

Hi Everyone

 

I have a problem with the report generation tooolkit. I found the error and it was reported to NI. Here is the link:

It says: 

 

Installation Instructions

  1. Close LabVIEW
  2. Replace the following files with their attached counterparts
    • ..\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\vi.lib\Utility\NIReport.llb\Word\NI_Word.lvclass
    • ..\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\menus\Categories\Programming\NI_ReportGenToolkit_Menus.lvlib
    • ..\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\vi.lib\addons\_office\NI_ReportGenerationToolkit.lvlib
    • ..\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\vi.lib\Utility\NIReport.llb\Excel\NI_Excel.lvclass
  3. Mass compile the following directories
    • ..\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\vi.lib\Utility\NIReport.llb\
    • ..\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2010\vi.lib\addons\_office\

I do not understand what does it mean when it says to replace the files. At the bottom of the link it has a zip file and I opened it and found the above files but

I am so lost on what exactly to do next. Do I just copy and paste and put in my NI LV folder from my computer or do I do something else?

 

I also do not know how I can mass compile directories. 

 

Does anyone have an idea? If you can give a detailed description I will very much appreciate it.

Yep.

 

To mass compile, to go Tools->Advanced->Mass Compile.  Choose your directly and run the mass compile.

Thanks! I was trying to figure this out all this morning. I was very unsure and now it works finally!
