system exec.vi

Hi, I am using System Exec.vi for calling an exe file in my program. I want to know is it possible to display my external program in the front panel and not in the separate windows? Thanks.

No, you cannot embed the UI of an EXE into your panel if you use "SystemExec.vi" to execute the EXE.

 

If the EXE has a software interface like ActiveX or .NET enabled, you can use this for embedding the UI.

Are calling a LabVIEW application? You can use a subpanel to display the VI.

No it's not a LabVIEW application. It is an external software when it is run a window get open and accepts the comments.
