Hi Mauro,

it's quite difficult to help you without seeing a piece of code but:

1st: what do you mean by "broken"? does it load correctly? is the behavior unexpected?

2nd: do you get any error during the execution in the workspace?

3rd: do you use an absolute path to access you config file?

4th: do call any SubVI you have created in your custom control? In this case you may want to create a source code distribution. The sources of the NI VeriStand Add-on - Configurable Custom Control Reference Example will provide you a nice exemple to do so.

Have a good day,

Hi florent,

1st: what do you mean by "broken"? does it load correctly? is the behavior unexpected?

Answer. when i take a custom control from workspace control it is not working and the is this error:

Error 1003 occurred at Workspace.vi >> sub_Launch Control.vi >> Launch Asynchronous VI by Ref.vi >> sub Launch Asynchronous VI.vi

Possible reason(s):

LabVIEW: The VI is not executable. Most likely the VI is broken or one of its subVIs cannot be located. Select File>>Open to open the VI and then verify that you are able to run it.
=========================
NI VeriStand: Broken VI: Synoptic - Synoptic_Totale_3-02660.vi
Missing subVI Read From Spreadsheet File (string).vi in VI Synoptic - Synoptic_Totale_3-02660.vi.

2nd: do you get any error during the execution in the workspace?

Answer: it is impossible to execute it because it is impossible to open in the wokspace

3rd: do you use an absolute path to access you config file?

i use an absolute path

i hope you can help me

if you want i can send you my vi.

regards

Mauro
