string not found in library resource

[IDavies]

I'm using the NI Simple Operator Interface example as the front end to my test stand sequences. All works fine on a development PC, but when I create an installer using TestStand2010 and put the software on a deployment PC, the software runs, but in the standard NI pop up for 'Enter UUT serial number' and the test completion result pop-up, all the normal text is replaced with "string not found in library resource".

I pretty sure that I must be missing some standard NI config or dll file in my Teststand build script. Does anybody know which files I am missing??

Thanks,

Ian

Ian,

you missed to deploy the language files on the target. The dialog is configured to read the appropriate string from the "ModelStrings.ini" file in order to enable translatation of the UI. Please make sure that the target system has all language files available (default is only english, but you can create your own including translated labels)

hope this helps,

Norbert

Norbert,

Yes, that was the missing file. Copied it across to deployment PC and the pop-ups now have the correct text, so many thanks.

I included the modelstrings file in my teststand build script, but for some reason this did not install it on the deployment PC. That's another problem for another time, for now I will do this copy manually!

Thanks again,

Ian
