Build executables when LabJack VI's are used

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello All

 

I am trying to finish up my first VI in labVIEW by building the corresponding executable and start with its distribution, however I am asked to save the changes of the VI's from the LabJack before I continue building my application, it is quite logic to me that the system is asking to save the changes but I cannot save them since they are part of the LabJack files, therefore when I click save I get a pop up stating that I don't have the permission to writte to the containing LLB!

 

I have been looking for a solution but I haven't really found anything related to it, Is there a way to incorporate these VI's from labjack to the project three so that I don't get this popups anymore? should I use these VI's in another way within the block diagram?

 

I have attached a picture of the two popups that I get.I

 

 will appreciate a lot you help, thanks in advance for any reply

Open the VIs which won't save and do Save As, then save them to a different location (not in the LLB).

We don't purposely do anything to the U12 LLB that prevents you from saving changes.  Maybe the LLB has been set to read-only, or maybe it is in a location on your hard drive where you don't have permission to write?

Thank you very much for your reply, it was so simple that I can't believe it

 

I was able to build the executable and the installer once I saved the VI's in a different location

 

Regards
