tutorial folder

[jyang72211]

I am trying to go over the tutorial in http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/320680d.pdf.  The turtorial says that I should have a tutorial folder in my cvi installation, but I don't (see page 18 in link above).  My CVI comes with the developer suite, and I was using LabVIEW in the suite exclusively, but now I want to try out CVI.  Why don't I have the tutorial folder?

Hi, Yik

Hello Yik,

That manual is very old (1998). I don't know which version of CVI you are using, but you should be able to find a version of the Getting Started manual that matches your version of CVI by first launching the help from CVI (Help>>Contents), then navigating to the Guide to Documentation topic in the table of contents, and then clicking on the Getting Started with LabWindows/CVI link.

To answer your question about the tutorial folder, it still exists, but it now installs in a writable location:

In Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\National Instruments\CVI<version>\tutorial

In Windows Vista/7: C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\CVI<version>\tutorial
