LV 6i app builder and Set Report Font.vi

[Jen J]

Hello,
I'm trying to build an application that uses LV 6i's report generation vis. When I build, the app builder starts copying the files to the application, but then stops abruptly with the error message: "Error 1003 occurred at D:\....." Possible Reasons: LabVIEW: The VI is not executable." The VI is executable. All inputs are wired correctly, etc..
Does anyone know if a .dll or other support file needs to be included in the build for the vi's to work? LabVIEW is not installed on my C drive but another local drive. Could it be something like that?

I've seen problems like this a few times. One of the things you can do is open your VI and hit CTRL+Shift and the run arrow. This does a force compile of the VI and can sometimes reveal what the problem is. Chances are you will track the problem to a font invoke node. You can try just replacing the invoke node and that might fix it. If not you can try this.

1. delete NI-Report from the registry
Its under H_Key_LocalMachine\software\national Instruments
2. delete the folder named ni-reports from ..\National Instruments\shared
3. reinstall the LV 6 Run-Time Engine from ftp.ni.com\support
Make sure that you install the correct RTE for the version of LabVIEW you are using. If you are using LabVIEW 6.0.2, get the 6.0.2 RTE.

You have probably already solved your problem by now so this response is more for anyone else having the same problem. I just ran into the exact problem you discribed. I tried everything I could think of to solve the problem including uninstalling labview and deleting every reference to a national instruments product in the registry. I then reinstalled labview and still had the same problem. I finally found the solution on this site somewhere. Apparently the problem is a bad registry entry. The solution is to run the attached file "fixRegistry.llb" and then restart the system. It worked for me.
