Programming NI USB 6008 & 6501 w/ Embarcadero RadStudio C++ VCL 2010

We have had these devices in our lab at Duke University for our students to work with for years, but so far we have been unable to talk to them with the programming environment we are using.  We just upgraded to Embarcadero's RadStudio 2010 (alias Borland and CodeGear) and are writing code in C++ using their Visual Component Library.  We have downloaded the NI-DAQ cluster of libraries, drivers, etc., but how do we reference those from RadStudio.  How do I get going?  We are currently using EZIO ad/da boards that are glacially slow, but at least we can figure out how to talk to them.  Is there a simple way to talk to these NI boards or did we waste our money buying them? 

We're new at this.  Please help...

Sincerely,

Nick

Hi Nick,

 

In reference to using Borland, I found two KnowledgeBase articles about using our C library for DAQmx with Borland.  They can be found here and here.  Do these documents contain the information you are looking for?
