ActiveX -> C++ Example program won't run

[Brian Chase]

I downloaded "Using ActiveX to Communicate Between LabWindows/CVI Projects and Visual C++ Projects" zip file. It won't compile because it's missing the 'delme.ico' and 'delme.rc2' files. Additionally, it doesn't have the CVI Project file.

Can you provide an update to this example that works correctly? I'm using LabWindows/CVI 5.5 and Visual C++ 6.0. Thanks.

Brian:

Thank you for letting us know about this problem. I have fixed the problem and have marked the web page to be updated with a new copy of the ZIP file. In the meantime, you should find the new ZIP file attached to this message.

Incidentally, this example requires Measurement Studio for C++, in addition to LabWindows/CVI 5.5 and Visual C++ 6.0. I don't think that requirement was originally documented. The C++ portion uses a few of the user interface controls includes with Measurement Studio for C++; I hope that doesn't cause any problems. Version 5.5 of LabWindows/CVI 5.5 comes with Measurement Studio for Visual C++, but you may not have installed it. This is a very useful package for C++ programmers, and I highly recommend installing it if you'r
e going to be working with C++.

Thank you,

I tried to execute C++ code, but the following files are not found:
"NiUiComponent.h"
"NiUiCommonComponent.h"
"NiCommonComponent.h"

How can I get them ?

Thank you
