Online Labview evaluation: opening my files

[Gordana]

Hi,

it seems that I can not open previous version Labview files (6 ver) in either online evaluation Labview Express 7 (it seems it gives me just remote directories) or downloaded version (it says that files are not signed). I don't recall that I had to do the signing before and of course my previos files are not signed.
Can you advise me what to do to see my previous files?

Thanks,

Gordana

Hello Gordana,

The online evaluation version of LabVIEW is housed on remote servers and is not capable of opening files from a local machine.

The issue with the downloaded version of LabVIEW giving an unsigned message is probably due to it being installed in LabVIEW player mode. In LabVIEW player mode only specific, signed demonstration VIs can be opened. You can turn it into an evaluation version by reinstalling it and choose eval mode.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Regards,

Matt F

Hi Matt. Thank you for the replay.
Regarding: I did install evaluation version in full mode (after first trying the player mode) so I don't think that is the problem.
Any idea if I can upload the files to the remote server for online viewing and testing?


Regards,

Gordana

Just email the vi to yourself using webmail, then use Explorer in the Labview demo to open the email& save to the Labview desktop (or wherever).

Do you realize how many "old" posts have helped me out, and undoubtedly others?  I needed a solution to his same problem, tech support suggested to try it, it works, so I'm sharing it.

I suppose I could have started a new thread (maybe better?) but I had his open, so replied to it instead.  Maybe it'l'll still help him when he gets the posting notice.
