How to deploy Visa

I am trying to use the visa library to deploy a test program.  When i use the visa library on my computer, the app works fine.  When i deploy the program to the test machine, it says that visa is not properly installed or not installed at all.  What do i need to use the visa application.  I am using the visa development drivers version 4.2.  When i deploy the program i am installing the nationalinstruments.visans.dll.  the application is written in C#.  the test machine is running XP and has the 2.0 framework on it.  Thanks.

Hi

You need to use exactly the same visa installation on the target machine.
In LabVIEW you could create an installer including VISA.

Hi,

Yes there is a VISA Runtime that you can install. Here is a link to the VISA Runtime versions on the web. Please use the same version as the full VISA version you are using on your development machine.
