My application will not open or create an Excel report.

[mwallace]

When I run the vi in LabView, it runs fine, and It will open Excel and/or save an Excel report depending on what I select on the express vi for report generation. After I build it with application builder, it runs like normal and displays the resulst on the front panel, but it does not open Excel or save an Excel file for a report. I get an error 7 and the source is listed as "New Report.vi -> subMS Office Report Block.vi -> MS Office Report.vi -> sound.vi" where sound.vi is my top level vi. I have added the _excel dynamicvis.vi and _word dynamicvis.vi as dynamic vi's and I've added _excelsub.llb and _wordsub.llb as support files. I searched for the new report.vi and added the library it was in as a support file. I have saved sound.vi as a library and included vi.lib files, external subroutines, and run-time menus, and I used this version of the sound.vi and added sound.llb as a support file. Is there anything else I'm forgetting?

Hello mwallace,

The behavior you are seeing is probably due to one of the VIs being added as a support file instead of a dynamic VI. When adding a file as a dynamic VI, Application builder will ensure that all subVIs are included.

The following knowledgebase examples this issue in some more detail.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

What it turned out to be is that I wasn't adding the Excel template as a support file. Thanks for the response though.
