Did you mean: 

LabWindows creates "C" code - can LabVIEW do the same? or is there some other way?

Need "C" code - and need CAN bus interfacing can Labview be used some how.

The LabVIEW development environment does not create 'C' code (like LabWindows/CVI).

If you would like to use LabVIEW with your CAN bus (which is a non-National Instruments board I am guessing) your device manufacturer will have to provide LabVIEW support, which will be in the form of provided vi's (LabVIEW code files) that will interface with your CAN driver.

Hi,

National Instrument does have CAN interfaces that work with LabVIEW. Are you using a NI CAN interface?

What type of application are you working on? I could provide more details based on your application.

BTW, what exactly do you mean by generating "C" code. In LabWindows CVI you MAKE your application in C, but the generated code is in machine language (which is the purpose of the compiler. LabVIEW is a graphical enviroment, but the graphical code is also compiled.

Hope this helps.
