How to automatically load a specified sequence file when opening a TestStand's user interface?

Hi,

Could you verify that there is a space between the two strings(one for the executable, and one for the argument)?  I can't tell from the dialog.

Thanks,

I did not have a space, I added a space.  Here is the block diagram and the error:

I am thinking...can I run that code by itself?  Should I put that code inside the Simple UI?

Hi,

It should work stand alone just like it was typed into a DOS prompt. Try typing the command into a DOS prompt and check that this works.  Also - just a shot in the dark but sometimes the 'full memory' error can be fixed by a reboot. 

Thanks,
Jim

Hi,

This works for me

Guys, many thanks.  I have found another way that doesn't require me to alter the code for every new sequence added to the file.  I have it working with a few warnings about releasing the sequences when I'm done.  I will still experiment with the command prompt thing but I think something more like this is what I'll need to do to keep the versatility.

I open the files as the UI opens, then I close the files before I exit the TestStand and LabView.

I figured out the last of the warnings...Instead of releasing the sequences and engine in the sub-vi I have to release it in the main vi.  After that everything works great!

Thanks for all your suggestions and help.
