Hi, you can capture the standard output (the results of your MY_APP.EXE execution) after using a System Exec.VI and according with this, you can find out if there was an error and create a log file (or restart the application)
Lab Viewer, excuse my ignorance, but I am not sure how to do what you are telling me. I found the system exec.vi, but not sure how to use it. Thanks for any more input.
