labview and GPIB

Hello,

We've recently purchased a GPIB interface to
go with the HP 1672 Logic Anaylzer.

Unfortunately, I am unable to transfer a data
file from the logic Anaylzer.

For example, According to the HP manual, to read
a file called listing.dat from the analyzer's
floppy, I send the command,

:MMEMORY:UPLoad? listing.dat, internal1

The logic anaylzer successfully begins to access
the file, but a few seconds later, the analyzer
displays, "query interrupted".

1) Is Labview 5.0 sending something else that would cause
it to be interrupted?
2) The command string should be terminated with
a line feed, correct?

I am using 2 of Labview's built in GPIB VIs:
Sequence 1:

GPIB Write ( with the constant command string, :MMEMORY:UPload?
listing.dat, int
ernal1 )

Sequence 2:
Receive: With Count left unattached inorder to terminate when all data
has been transferred.

Is there perhaps a VI that simulatenously places the command and
begins to read, all in one vi?
