Hello!

You know LabWindows CVI is a text-based (C/C++) development environment, LabVIEW a graphical!

It is possible to use the Code form CVI within LabVIEW, by creating a .dll out of your CVI code and call it

in LabVIEW using the "CallLibraryNode", or to use a formular node and type in the C-Code from CVI.

You can also convert your function panels into LabVIEW.  In fact, I have used this feature in the past for creating enumerated controls that have non-contiguous values. The utility is built into LabVIEW under Tools -> Instrumentation -> Import CVI instrument driver that does this for you.  You will need to get open each function panel separately, but it does work remarkably well.

Hope that this helps,
