Customizing Express Report VI

[Kem]

Where do I find the directions on how to "Customizing Express Report VI?"  All I want to do is to be able to supply the path and file name for the "Report" express VI, the rest of the VI works out good enough for my application.

You will have to open its front panel and convert it to a regular subVI.  Then you pop open the diagram, find the file path constant and convert it to a control.  Link the control to a terminal on the connector pane and you are ready to go.

Hope that this helps,

Kem,

What Bob Y suggests will certainly work. It is not clear from your message whether you want to have the path displayed as a control on your front panel or not. If you simply want to change the current path to another one and it does not have to be displayed on the front panel, you can simply double click on the Report Generation VI and change the path to whatever location you would like.
