client/server

[MBK]

I want to write a client/server vi that collects lets say 16 random numbers on the server and sends them to the client, the client displays the 16 numbers in excel in a 4X4 matrix with the first row containing the first four random numbers that were sent

MBK,

So this sounds like a great app and I think you could definitely benefit from using the TCP vis or the shared variables for your communication. Let us know how your programming goes or if you have any specific questions.

See the simple Client, simple server examples that ship with LV7.0+.  just modify the string to contain the 4x4 data matrix and modify the client to have an embedded activeX excel object which will display the data.
