PROBLEM - Imaq vision for measurement studio - MISSING CWMV.ocx

PROBLEM - Imaq vision for measurement studio

The manual supplied with my software refers to two Active X .OCX files: CWIMAQ.ocx, and CWMV.ocx

Ihave only been able to locate the CWIMAQ.ocx file. The CWMV.ocx file is missing - I have searched my entire computer including inside files and there is no string CWMV anywhere

A search through NI found four references including a download from 2002

Should the CWMV.ocx file still be used on my versions of software. if so where should they be!!??

Software NI-IMAQ - 3.1.1
NI-DAQ - 7.4.0f0
IMAQ VISION 7.1.0
Image Services library 7.1.1.948
Image Processing 7.1.1.4004

The file you are looking for is in C:\Windows\System32\cwmv.ocx.
You need to make sure that you have installed VB before you installed IMAQ Vision.

Hope that helps

Dear Mike,
Thankyou for your reply

The file does not exist in the C:\Windows\System32\cwmv.ocx directory
It does not appear to exist anywhere on my entire computer - including inside CAB files etc.

The NI Software was pre-installed for me by NI - I installed VB afterwards.

What is best way to recover - do I have to uninstall and reinstall the NI software. Is this likely to have created other problems also?

Thankyou Scragga

If you go to Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs then go to National Instruments Software. Click Change. Then if you select IMAQ Vision and click modify. Insert your disc and step through as if you were doing a new installation. You should be able to check for support for Visual Basic. This will install your ocx.

Hope that helps
