report vis included in the application built files

[DougFerguson]

I am using the built in LabVIEW report generation toolkit to build a standard report. Once I build the executable all the HTML, Report, and Standard Report VIs are included with the executable. Is this necessary? I don't want them to be available (or even seen) in the user's destination folder.

Hello Doug,

Thank you for contacting National Instruments!  I was wondering if you have seen this Knowledgebase Article that briefly describes the reason for this extra files added to the application.  Also, at the bottom of the article there is a link to another document that describes how to manage those files.  If you have any further questions on this issue once you have had the chance to look through this documentation please post here and we will be happy to assist you.  I hope this helps!  Have a great day!

I foullowed the instructions and the .llb was created, but the report folders were still created as well. Anyway to stop that? Should I just simply delete them after creation?

Sure, if you wanted to. You can programmatically delete the files from the user's folder. Use the 'Delete.vi' function located in the advanced file functions folder.
