Showing LV panel/control in CVI

I need to use some controls from LV into my CVI program. Is there a way
I can display a LV control on my CVI panel or just use a whole LV panel
in CVI code (for displaying my data only)?

I just wish NI provide same controls in CVI which they provide in LV. I
am looking for something like a waveform display.

What do you mean by "something like a waveform display"? CVI has graph and strip chart controls and examples that use them. See graphs.prj and stripchart.prj that ship with CVI.
You can't use LabView controls directly in CVI. With the Appliation Builder, you could create a DLL and the use CVI to call functions in that DLL.

What I meant was "Digital waveform display" like LV has. LV has 3
controls, graph, stripchart and digital waveform. You can use digital
waveform display to display on/off signals, like clock. Using stripchart

I just loaded up LV on my machine and the stripchart control that comes
with LV remembers whatever data was previously displayed. The
graphs/charts have legends. I just wish CVI had all this functionality.

Vishi,

Attached is an example program which demonstrates digital graphing in CVI. Please refer to the readme.txt file for usage (and comments in the code).

Alan, thanks a lot. That's what I was looking for.
