Re: How do I read text from specific rows and columns in a tree structure?

Labview, Linux and databases

I'm going to start playing with Labview 7 in Linux. The app I have in mind needs serial I/O and database access, and presently uses the database toolkit in Windows. Serial seems no problem in Linux but I assume ODBC may be. The only option I can find from a brief Google is to use some VIs for

Re: Why do some older instruments require waits between writes?

Re: Renaming vi's in llb

RE: Corporate PC purchases for factory test, your experiences please

We often have a similar scenario when installing PC based DAQ (including PXI with Windows) at clients' sites. Usually, the client contact asks us not to mention certain terms in any of our documentation (eg: PC, Operating System, PCI Card, etc), and instead call the PC a Data Acquisition
