Calling LabVIEW VIs

[Benemax]

Hi All,

I am having trouble calling a vi and passing parameters to it using ActiveX calls. I used the code he found it on the website ni.com, but there is no reference to how to call vi from tcp network, as \\hostname:14000\application.vi

I try use this code:

Dim lvapp As New LabVIEW.Application
Dim vi As LabVIEW.VirtualInstrument
Dim viPath As String = ""

viPath = "\\hostname:14000"

vi = lvapp.GetVIReference(viPath)

vi.FPWinOpen = True 'show the front panel
vi.Run(True)

i tried viPath = "C:\LabView\MyFolder\Appliction.vi" and work, what is the right syntax???

Thanks!

I'm sorry,

I forgot to say that I compiled the labview project as .exe! it's possibile to extract the reference of vi from an exe? example \\hostname:14000\application.exe\application.vi or something???
