lvdaq problem with executable

[Travis G.]

Hello Tom,

Have you been contacted and received the utility from the Applications Engineer you spoke to over the phone?  After receiving that utility, I would first recommend doing a complete uninstall of all National Instruments products from your system through Add/Remove Programs.  Then I would run that utility.  This should have no effect on activating LabVIEW 8 after the reinstall.

Travis,

Yes, John got back to me today and sent the instructions and cleanup files. I have deleted all NI programs and reinstalled LabView 7.1 and 8.0 and NI-DAQ 8.1 (with legacy support for 7). I have not yet updated to LabView 8.0.1. I wanted to test everything first with 8.0. The good news is I can create an executable and an installer and port it over to my WIN2000 Pro system and everything works!!! The bad news is that I have had to return the borrowed Acqiris analyzer so I can't complete the timing tests I was working on. Oh well.

Many thanks to you and to John on the phoneline. It wasn't exactly an elegant fix, but it was a fix nonetheless. I think I'll just stick with 8.0 for a while unless there is some compelling reason to go to 8.0.1. I don't think the 8.0.1 update that caused the problem (probably some registry issue with my computer) but I'm not in the mood to take chances right now.

It fixed my lvdaq.dll problem

Recently I had the same problem even on the same machine I built the application.
The solution was quite simple:
I built the application with admin rights, and tested it as an admin, too.
The machine where the app is running is used ba many people
who don't have admin rights.
The easiest way to solve this problem was to set read and write rights
to the National Instruments folder for all users.
Now the app is running with every user and works just fine.
Maybe this is a solution for others who do not want to install the whole
LabView system again and again...
