the VI mentioned in the subject is used in many examples but I have yet failed to locate it in the "functions" panel and didn't find it in the help files either. Thus the simple question: where is it?
The VI is a utility VI that ships with the LabVIEW DAQmx examples. It can be found in your LabVIEW directory, usually something along the lines of C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.1\examples\DAQmx\_Utility\_Utility.llb if you installed LV and DAQmx to their default locations.
