LV8.5: build exe without referenced VI help files

[nighteagle]

I have updated an application from LV8.2 to LV8.5. When I made the build specification and generated the preview, there where numerous *.chm files in the support directory.

These *.chm files are help files I have produced for certain Sub-VIs in my application (the end user of the application must not see them).

How can I exclude them from the building process in Labview 8.5?

THANKS!

Hi,

attached here screenshot from *.exe building. When you add folder with *.chm or other files like *.html - you see it in preview. When you exclude these folder from source files, then you´ve not the *.chm or other files. Look here in my *.doc

So you save all *.chm in separate folder and then not insert in source tab in starting vi´s field or tab below in the catagorie source files like my screenshot

Best Regards

Hi - Thanks for the answer, but my problem is a little bit different.

I have HLP-files that are referenced in a VI (if you enter the name and path in the VIs properties it is possible to get to the help file via the context help).

So I can not remove just the folder where my help files are located. I would have to delete the files - so no hlp-files would get copied to the builded application.

As i know you cannot exclude them form *.exe building because you need it dynamically when you call them in vi
