Don't forget that eventually when you compile your RT application, the front panel will be removed. It doesn't make sense to ask the user to choose the file name if the you can't see the front panel. It will work if you uncheck that feature and wire a file path constant to it. So what you need to do is ask for the file path on the host PC and have it transferred over to the RT using a shared variable. Although most of the time, you just generate a temp file name on the RT and have the user select the file name he/she wants on the
PC instead because that's where it matters the most, I believe.
