Hello! I just want to know how to open a document (.pdf or .doc).

[Marco Santos]

I have looked at Labview\vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open a Document on Disk.vi but the vi has many subvi's. It works well but when I  build a new application I always get errors when I try to open the document. Thank you.

Duplicate post.  See this thread.

I am not really sure if it is a duplicate, because if I read the question right, the problem occurs onyl in a built application.

Most likely you are using relative paths (realtive to "current VI path").

Here's a recent discussion that might be useful:

EDIT PORTION:

Humm...  the titles were similar....  "Hello! I just want to know how to open a document (.pdf or .doc) after the press of a control button. Thank you."

But you're right.. nothing mentioned about a build..  >> SORRY: Not Duplicate Post <<
