Change location of 'Instruments Files'

[Rafi2003]

Hi,

Here is my problem,

On one PC TS is istalled in \TestStand\,   on another PC it is   ..\TestStand 3.5\

My project uses the instruments:  tsapicvi.fp  and tsutil.fp.

When I copy the project from one PC to the other, these 2 files are not found.  However, they appear in the project tree like they are found!!!  Only if I double click on them, I get 'file not found'.  The problem shows up during compilation where I get a link error for not founding TS API functions.

questions:

1) Is this normal behavior?  (it took me several minutes to figure out what went wrong)

2) Is there a way to copy these file to my project directory and than specify then with relative location?

Thanks

Rafi

Hi,

1) This is normal. When you first load your project, if any files are missing, you will get a prompt reporting the problem to you.

Then in the IDE, under the date column ( I am looking at CVI 6.0 version), for any file that is missing you get 'No Date Available'.

2) All you have to do is select the item and do a Edit | Replace File In Project.
