Hello
Has anyone had any experience querying Active Directory on Windows Server
2000 or 2003 from LabVIEW?
I know are ways to access it with ADO objects or with .NET, which I am
experimenting with, but so far I am not having much success. Any tips are
appreciated.
Thanks,

I'm looking into buying the Agilent 3499A switching mainframe and
using some matrix/multiplexing modules (N2260A and N2262A).
I found the Labview driver for the mainframe but nothing for the
modules.
Does the mainframe driver contain the functionality of all the
modules? If not, does anyone know

If I understand your question you just want the LabVIEW search pop-up

Hi Sumitrishi,
When a VI is made reentrant, this property does not affect any of the
subVIs and does not make seperate copies of the subVI. In other
words, it does not make the subVIs of the reentrant VIs reentrant.
There are many reasons for this, some of which are

If you aren't using flow control, then it's very likely that the

you adjust your input data arrays so that they contain numbers that are

The standard OR function in the boolean sub palette of the functions
