Save Loaded Instruments/Libraries

[MarcBAE]

In my CVI project, I have several instruments loaded, e.g. niscope, nidmm, etc. However, when I save the workspace and transfer the files (.C, .cdb, .cws, .prj) and transfer those files to a new computer I have to reload the instruments/libraries.

In reality, I have to reload those instruments (bottome left window in CVI) every time I close/reopen CVI and that project/workspace. Is there a way to have those instruments loaded every time I reopen this particular project/workspace? It's kind of a pain on those occassions where I want to send my source to a collegue and have to walk them through loading the proper instruments in order to get the workspace to compile/link without error.

Thanks

You can simply add the .FPs to the project, and they will be reloaded (and recompiled if needed) when you open the project.

Alternatively, you can load the instruments into the Library menu (Library >> Customize menu item) and they will be available to all of your projects without need to load them into the Instrument menu. Additionally, they won't be recompiled at project opening so you will save a little time in this process.
