Run labview only when open from command prompt

[Kaustav19]

Hello everyone,

    I am working on a LabVIEW project in which I have to create a exe

(i) Which should run directly with certain arguments when call from command prompt. 

(ii) But when open manually I don't want that tool should run directly without users permission. 

If anybody can suggest any idea to implement is most welcome.

Thanks in advance

1. You can enable command line arguments for your exe and read those arguments on startup procedure…
2. What is "open manually" in comparison to "call from command prompt"? You still can examine the command line arguments: when there are no arguments then your executable can react on that as needed…

1) Command line arguments can be implemented

2) Huh? Do you mean if the user launches it by clicking on its icon? That would be the same as launching it form the command line with no arguments, right? So make a case that just exits if no command line argument was present on launch.
