Programmatically Retrieving PCI Slot Information

I'm using CVI 6.0 and I want to programmatically retrieve PCI slot Information. In fact, I want to know in wich slot are my PCI-6602 and PCI-32HS cards.

If you are using CVI 6 together with the tradiditionel NI-DAQ driver than you can use the function Init_DA_Brds or Get_DAQ_Device_Info in a loop to obtain the device code.
A much better idea is to upgrade to CVI 7.0 and use the DAQmx function call which is able to deliver an array that contains the names of all devices installed in the system.

I'm sorry but it's not what i mean. I only want to know the number of the PCI slot where the card is plugged.

You can retrieve the board code or the device number of a card.
But, retrieving the PCI slot number is not supported by LabWindows/CVI.
