Hi,
I have to run an application made in LV2009 and NI-DAQ 9.0mx in a machine with LV 8.2 and NI-DAQ 8.3.
I saved for a previous version, and the DAQ-mx problem would be easy to correct by replacing the DAQmx vi's for the ones in the machine, but it destroyed too many connections and I would have to make the program almost from scratch.
My question is: Can I make an executable to run in NI-DAQ 8.3? I cannot (not allowed to) replace the DAQmx, because it's a development/testing computer and I should leave the system as is.
I could however, install NI-DAQmx Core Runtime for 9.0.2. would this ruin the 8.3?
Hope this wasn't too confusing...
Thanks...

I don't understand why you cannot run a program with DAQmx 8.3. Once you open the LabVIEW 8.2 program on the pc with the older version of DAQmx, it should find all of the functions.
No, you cannot install more than one hardware driver on a pc. Installing any version of 9.0.2 would overwrite 8.3 though since 9.0.2 is supported by LabVIEW 8.2, I really don't see what the issue is

The issue was the owner of the machine who wouldn't have the machine touched! 🙂
But I finally convinced him that his programs would run if I updated the drivers... so problem solved!
Thanks anyway!
