How to generate a value to a slide randomly and continuously using measurement visual c++?

[teck lee]

i would like to generate a signal to a slide randomly and continuosly when start and stop function is pressed. How to do this part of coding and what type of datatype in this software should be used?

You can use a timer and generate a random value and set it to the slide in the WM_TIMER message handler. I think the Control Metrics example that ships with Measurement Studio for Visual C++ behaves similar to what you describe and that's what it does. Check it out under the Examples\UI\Common\Control Metrics subdirectory of your Measurement Studio for Visual C++ installation directory.
