How can I create an installer for my project that can work on 32-bit Windows if I have 64-bit Windows Vista?

Hi,
I made a LabVIEW project that works perfectly and made an installer for it. I tested the installer on my own computer and everything worked well. The goal for my installer was to put it on multiple computers. So I tried to do this on another computer that has Vista 32-bit and it told me that the installer can only run on 64-bit computers. I tried to choose to install run-time 32bit and it did not change anything, there was still a message to tell me that this installer only can be ran on 64-bit computers. How can I make an installer that works on 32-bit computers?
Thank you.

The code will have to recompile, but yes it should work. I recommend making a backup before proceeding just in case.

How do I create an installer for my project that allows for variable data entry like a server unc path?

Hello All,
I have a questions and a few hours of scouring the internet hasn't brought me much closer to an answer.
Here's what I want to do. I have created a visual c# wpf application. I want to have an installer that during install time will have a text box or something where I can enter a server path as a string. Basically my application needs to know where to look
for a server unc path \\server\somesharedfolder that it will be accessing primarily for its work. Secondly, how do I reference said information from within my code.
I have come across application/user scoped settings, which appears to be what I'm looking for. However I can't find a way to have the installer prompt for a value "Server Path:" __________ that I could type into during installation. So far it appears
the only way would be to edit the config.deploy file before running the installer, which isn't a big deal but you'd think there'd be an easy way to take in variables during install.
EDIT: Apparently I can't edit the config.deploy file as I get an error message about the hash not matching.
Thanks for your help!

Hello,
The forums I found confusing, didn't know the best place to put this question so I put it here.
I have found the answer over at stackoverflow and will detail here for anyone who may stumble across the same problem.
The problem is ClickOnce seemingly doesn't support this feature. Installshield LE either doesn't or does but its incredibly too complicated if all you need is one variable passed to the registry during installation. And it seems the words used for googling
this particular problem will never lead you to the solution.
So here's how to do it (we will be first adding the Visual Studio Installer Add-on to restore original installer project functionality):
1) Inside of visual studio 2013 go to Tools -> Extensions and Updates
2) On the left-hand side click on Online -> Visual Studio Gallery
3) In the upper-right search box search for "Visual Studio Installer"
4) Download the extension labeled "Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects"
5) Install, then open a new project under Templates -> Other Project Templates -> Visual Studio Installer -> Setup Project
6) Now for the gold. In the solution explorer there are icons in a bar just below its title bar, highlight till you see "User Interface Setup" and open it.
7) Now you can right click on Start, Progress, End etc any Category heading and hit Add Dialog.
8) From here for my purposes, I used TextBoxes A
9) Once you add it, click on it and observe its properties window. You will see Label, Property, and Value. Make a note of the property name as it will be used to store the data directly into the registry. *Note: there appears to be no way to perform data
validation using the built in textbox dialogs, users can enter whatever they want and move on.
10) Go to the registry editor on the same icon bar under solution explorer.
11) Specify your registry folder, make a new value (I used string) and name it whatever you like. In the value section enter the property label formatted as such [EDITA1] depending on your value.
12) Now when you run the installer for your project, it will take data into that field and place it into the registry provided it has access to that key with the permissions you run the program under.

How do I create an installer for older versions of LV?

I have applications, for different customers, in different versions of LabVIEW. After installing the latest update to 8.2 it seems it is no longer possible to create an installer with an identical suite of additional installers. I think it should be possible to rebuild an installer with additional installers of your choice, i.e. older versions!
I would like to change only the LV-app and not the rest in order to avoid potential new problems. To be able to create an installer based on a LV-app in 8.0.1. I now need several CD:s from different LV releases. How could that be solved?

Hi Elinas,
I don't totally get what you want but I think I see your problem.
You want to create an installer with LV7.1 (or something), right?
Then when you build it and say add NI-DAQ drivers the installer asks for the LV 8.2 driver disk?
This is expected, because it is not looking at the LabVIEW version but at the NI-DAQ current version and it's origin (LV 8.2 driver disk).
There is no harm here as long as the up-to-date driver on your computer is backwards compatible (check this, the mentioned NI-DAQ and DAQmx removes older cards at every release!)
So it is not asking for the LV-disk but for the driver disk. If you want to install older drivers, you have to seperately download them from the NI-site and install them seperate (or remove the new one and install the old one, but I think you'll get errors)

How do I create an executable for a computer that does not have IVI drivers

I'm creating an executable driver (based on the NI drivers) for a TDS 3054 intended for a computer that does not have the IVI engine. I would prefer to install as little software on this computer as possible. Is it possible for me to build the driver with the appropriate support DLL's without installing IVI on the user's computer? How do I do this?
Thank you,
Zach Oberman

Zach,
Since the tkds30xx driver you are using is IVI based, you will not be able to use it without the IVI Engine.
If you must build an executable that does not require the IVI Engine, then you will need to use a traditional LabVIEW driver or convert a VXIpnp driver into LabVIEW. Neither of those drivers would require the IVI Engine.
At this time the only TDS 3054 driver on NI's IDNet website is the IVI-based tkds30xx driver.
You may be able to obtain a traditional LabVIEW driver from

How do you create a brochure for a website that is interactive and opens like a real brochure?

I've created a brochure in Indesign. I can make it interactive and have the pages turn like a book, but I want it to open like a brochure. How can I do this and with what program?

Next we'll want folding pieces represented on a screen that represents the unfolded piece of paper behaving like a pdf, behaving like a folded piece of paper.
It's like inception!
I use BoxShot 4 - you can save a 3D pdf.
It doesn't allow folding - but gives it a good idea.

How do I create an e-mail graphic poster that can be sent out?

I need to create an e-mail poster advertisement for a
recreation area that
will be sent out to shareholders. I need to do this for work.
Does anyone
have any suggestions on how I would do this? Would I create
the web page and
then send the web page in an e-mail. I need it to show up
directly, not
through an attachment. Also, once created, this will be sent
out to
shareholders. How do I save this file to disk in what format
so that it can
be sent out by my boss. I am doing this as an
extra-curricular activity for
work. Any suggestions would be helpful.
Thanks
jmick

You can open the web page in a browser, select all, copy and
paste into Outlook. That works. i don't know about other email
progs.

How do I create a form with text fields that can continue to multiple pages with out it over lapping

I have created a form in Livecycle and have made every object a sub field. But I am still having the same probably. The text field only continues on to a second page and overlaps the footer I have created at the bottom of the page. I am new to livecycle and have tried a lot of different things to fix this problem. Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I've found this blog http://blogs.uoregon.edu/developments/2010/12/29/pdf-making-text-fields-grow-to-accommodat e-text/ and this example file : flowableTest.pdf? Is it close to what you search? I cannot go deeper into example now, but will.

Can I create a link for captions in Adobe Captivae

can I create a link for captions in Adobe
Captivae

Hi HAMADART and welcome to our community
I'm a bit fuzzy on what you are looking for.
If you are asking if you can create a hyperlink from a text
caption that will open a URL or something, the answer is that you
can, but not like you think. You would insert a caption and place
it, then insert a click box object and program it to point to the
URL. Then place the click box object over where you want your user
to click.
If you are asking if you can create a link that forces the
Closed Captioning to display, first off I'd wonder why a link when
clicking the CC button is so easy. But if you are asking if there
is a way to cause Closed Captioning to display without user
intervention, you need to take a look at fellow Adobe Community
Expert Paul Dewhurst's site and use one of his widgets.

Create a TOC for a course that has multiple projects

I have Captivate 4. Previously I could create a menu for a project that would link to other project files in the course using the Skin Editor. When I clicked the TOC tab in the skin it listed slides for the one project I was in. How do I add links to the other modules (project files) in the course? Thank you.

Hi there
One way to accomplish this is by using the Aggregator to link projects together using a unified TOC.
Another way to accomplish it is to configure a slide with an On Enter action of opening the desired project. Then point the TOC entry to that specific slide.

How do you create an installer/bundle for PPro with extension, a plugin (export-controller) and some

Hi
As my topic says
How do you create an installer/bundle for PPro with extension, a plugin (export-controller) and some custom presets?
Assume you have Flash Builder 4.5, CS Extension builder 2.0, Xcode 4.5.1 running under MacOS 10.8.

I understand why you need updated running headers in your book. To a sighted reader these serve as a guide to where you are and help you find things quickly. In addition, if you are exporting your data to XML or HTML from the tagged PDF it would also be important to have these in the proper location.
But for accessibility purposes, it doesn't have to be there because the screen reader reads everything in linear order, line by line. No one is looking at the page. A user listening to the screen reader read the page is going to hear this heading, just before the actual word itself. So they will hear the first word on the page twice. It's not the end of the world if it's there, but such headings are not necessary for accessibility unless they are not repetitive and contain information that is not otherwise available.
So I would say, fine if you need them or want them there, it's just one word.
I think you should try exporting your book to PDF (or even just a chapter of the book) and look at the tags panel in Acrobat to see if you are getting the result you want. I can't tell you exactly what you should do to get those results, you are using a plug-in I don't have.
I can tell you I didn't have to add the headers to any article at all, they just automatically export if the other articles in the file are added and you don't select the header style option "not for export as XML."
You may not experience the same results with your plug-in, but I think it will probably work the same way.
Give it a try and best of luck.

I can not create an Installer, After install the Vision Builder Demo and then uninstall it. I can not create a Labview installer anymore, it asks me for a Vision Builder Installer, even if My Labview program does not have nothing to do with it...

Hi Shada this can happen if you are including additional installers to your installer for example DAQmx. When you are doing this the installer has to include other files like MAX (Measuremente and Automation Explorer). Probably when you installed Vision Builder it updated MAX, so when your installer is trying to Include MAX, its asking for the source where it was installed in your computer in this case Vision Builder.
Here you can cache the information so its not asked again, or you can download a newer version fo DAQmx, so it will update MAX and change de dependecy.

Hi Sander,
As far as I tested it, it is not possible either with PS2010. The URL only contains the PDP name and the projUID.
