File Dialog and Report Generation Toolkit

Hi,
 
I designed a VI for an electrometer calibration and it works quite wellSmiley Wink The only problem I have is the following:
 
I used the Report Generation Toolkit to put the measurement data in an Excel file. When I run the VI I'd like a window to pop up to define the location and name of the Excel report file. If these two things are done LabVIEW should create the specified Excel file and run the rest of the code.
So i tried this with the "File Dialog" Vi and all the needed low-level File I/O VIs and it worked.
 
But when i connect the "File Dialog" VI with the "New Report" VI of the Report Generation Toolkit I get an error message.
 
Is there any solution to get this file dialog pop up window with the Report Generation VIs?
 
thx for any help...!Smiley Happy

Hi,

After building a report, save it using ' save report to file. vi'  that will be on your functions palette  inside the report generation tools
