I have an application built with Labview7.1 and it launches successfully when running on the development machine. When it is tested on a test machine with the runtime engine only. An error indicating instrsup.dll and some other files not found popped up. The application does ac voltage sweep with California Instrument power supply using visa3.1 driver. Please see the attachment for the error msg. Labview experts, please advise.
The instrup.dll is located in the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 directory on the developer machine. You can include this file in your executable by following the steps below:
1. When building your executable with the Application Builder, go to the Installer Settings tab and check the Create Installer option. 2. Click on Files and the Installation Destination Settings window will pop up. 3. Click on Add File and browse to the C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 directory. Select the instrup.dll and click OK twice.
You should be back in the Build Application or Shared Library. When you are ready to continue, click Build.
Hope this helps!

Thank you very much for the hints, Mr Vences! The executable runs fine now by adding instrsup.dll as a support file in the Data folder when building the application. BTW, what is instrsup.dll and what is it used for?
