Get a sequence file from list of part numbers

[OregonGumby]

I would like to modify the TestStand Simple UI interface so that the operator can choose from a drop down list of part numbers that will then open the appropriate sequence file instead of browsing to open a file.  Is this possible?

Hi OregonGumby

Does this snippet help you?

Hey OregonGumby, here are some other links that can help you get started

• TestStand UI with Sequence File Selection Menu (LabVIEW) : would require some coding to get the functionality you want. But the quickest path to resolution would be to rename the sequence files with the associated part numbers
• Using Teststand UI Controls to load a sequence file in Labview : another developer had a similar quetsion here. Utilized OpenSequenceFile Method to solve his issue

I'm finally revisiting this. 

I have some code that is working.  Sort of.

It does exactly what I want it to until I exit the VI at which point it gives me a TestStand Debug Warning window that says: References to PropertyObjects were not released properly. 

Total number of objects: 2042

Number of top-level objects: 33

When I click the close button on this window, LabVIEW crashes.

If I compile and run it, it runs fine until I try to exit, at which point it hangs.

OregonGumby,

Most likely there's an open reference in your program that you aren't closing correctly. I was able to find an article on our support site that goes into this error message in detail.

TestStand: PropertyObjects Were Not Released Warning When Using LabVIEW Code Module

I would try reading that and then going through your code to double check that you're closing all the references you open.

I hope this helps.
