Another really easy one: Is there a way to compile a .vi and its dependenci​es into a standalone executable​?

Hey, I'm using the Full Development System version 5.0.1, and I was wondering if I can take a VI and its dependencies and turn them into an executable which doesn't depend on Labview's being installed.
Or if not, what is the minimum amount of Labview that needs to be installed in order to run a .Vi?
Thanks,

Use Application Builder to create an executable. I believe LV 5.0.1 is close to 5.1.1. You'd get a .exe file that you can distribute. Keep in mind that you need Run Time Engine installed in the machine that will run without the LabVIEW development system. I believe the run time engine is free. If you use the SQL toolkit, you'll need to get a run-time license for App Builder.
In LV 5.1.1, under Project menu, select "Build Application".
I'd generally build a single VI containing all the VIs but you can certainly link it to an external file. Both ways work.
Under "Top Level VI", you'd need to specify the Top Level VI if you want the VI to execute automatically. Otherwise, it'll prompt you to select a VI to run.
I hope that helps. Regards,
