Opening Excel2000 Labview.exe generated errors

I am trying to generate an Excel speadsheet to report test results with LabVIEW 6 and Excel 2000 on a Windows 2000 machine. The LV 6 Excel library distributed by NI has an "excel open.vi" which causes LabVIEW to crash. The error message is "Labview.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. Error log is being created." Is this because of WIN2K or Excel 2K? What do I need to do to use Excel?

I have the same configuration as you do in my computer with everything working fine, except for one thing, I have the update of LabVIEW 6.0.2, so I will recommend you three things in order to fix this issue:
1. Get the update for LabVIEW (www.ni.com >> Software Downloads >> Drivers and Updates >> Current Software Versions >> LabVIEW >> Select the update for your system, please follow all the instructions for installation. Reboot the computer after installation and try the example again.
2. Try the examples that I'm sending to you as attachment and also try the example for writing data to Excel which is located in the Help >> Examples... >> Communications >> ActiveX >> Write Table to Excel
3. Try reinstalling Excel or re-assigning the automation refn
um.
If you still found issues concerning this VI you may want to try to contact us directly and have a copy of the VI that is failing in order to test, you may find the information to reach us at www.ni.com/ask
Good luck!

  • Labview.exe - Application Error

    While running VI in Labview 7.1, I receive the following error:
    Labview.exe - Application error
    The instruction at "0x05791a4b" referenced memory at "0x00000034".  The memory could not be "written".
    Has anyone seen this error?  Does anyone have an idea of the cause?
    For reference, this is a new computer, XP Pro, 4G ram.  I did not get the error on the previous computer running the same code, but the old computer had other issues that required it be replaced.

    This looks like an error popup from windows.  Those hex values are going to be different depending on where the problem is in memory, and that could be different every time.  It might have created a Dr Watson's error report, but that usually isn't enough to determine the cause.
    I agree with John's direction -- is it reproducible?  Is it only one VI?
    Do you ever get another type of error message from LabVIEW?  If fatal, it will appear when the error occurs.  If a warning, it will appear at LabVIEW's next start-up.  Please refer to:

  • NalAgent.exe generates error

    Since a few weeks we experience an error on some workstations in our network concerning the NalAgent.exe application.
    The following errors pops up (translated from Dutch):
    NalAgent.exe - application error:
    The instruction on 0x7e399dda points to memory on 0x02048398. The necessary data is not transferred to the memory because of an I/O-errorstatus of 0xc0000be.
    Click OK the end the program
    Click Cancel to debug the program
    We have tried searching the application and system logs on the computers, but we could not find any useable log to diagnose this problem.
    Some information regarding our workstations:
    - Windows XP SP3
    - Novell Application Launcher 7.0.1.4
    - Novell Client 4.91 SP5 for Windows (version 4.91.5.20080922)
    The other thing we have noticed is that on these computers there is a Citrix clint installed. This is used for some specific applications.
    Perhaps anyone knows how to troubleshoot this problem ?

    The Latest patch may help. (or Uninstall/Reinstall)
    If multiple devices are impacted, the issue may be caused by a Corrupt
    Application Object. Try slowing removing apps from the PC or remove all
    and add some in slowly.

  • LKCITDL.EXE generating errors

    We are using Lookout V5.0.  Our system stopped communicating with its Fieldpoint FP-1001 network interface modules (RS-485) and we started getting an error "LKCITDL.EXE has generated errors and will be closed by Windows".  Any ideas what has happened?

    That is the database process.  Make a new database and attempt to rebuild the old.

  • Error in LabView.exe after each start

    I installed LabView 7.0 in an older computer (Pentium III, 500 MHz, 512M RAM, Windows 2k sp4) along with GPIB and E-series PCI cards. Each time I open LabView it crashes and says "LabView.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. An error log is being generated." The error log is attached, but means nothing to me. It crashes with regularity within 30 sec of opening LabView but I seem to be able to run .vi's during that time. I've tried:
    1) Reinstalling
    2) updating video card driver and ActiveX
    3) installing on a different drive
    none of these help.
    Any help you may have would be appreciated.

    LabVIEWlog.txt ‏1 KB

    Hello,
    The file you attached is a LabVIEW.ini file, where the configuration settings are stored. Please find the error log file, and this should give you a better idea what might have caused the error.
    There are two types of log files. There are those created by LabVIEW and those created by Windows.
    The log file created after internal LabVIEW errors is called LabVIEW_Failure_Log.txt and it is stored in your temporary LabVIEW directory. By default, this directory is located at C:\Documents and Settings\(User Name)\Local Settings\Temp (Windows 2000).
    NOTE: By default, the Local Settings folder is a hidden folder. In order to view hidden files and folders in Windows Explorer, select Tools » Folder Options » View. In the Advanced Settings field, select Show
    hidden files and folders.
    If you have modified the location of you temporary directory, the log file will be located there. To view or change LabVIEW's temporary directory path, go to Tools » Options » Paths » Temporary Directory. For more information on the error information contained in the LabVIEW_Failure_Log.txt file, visit the LabVIEW Internal Error Support Page linked below.
    If you receive an error message saying that LabVIEW has generated errors and will be closed by Windows, there will be a different log file created. This is a log file created by Windows, and by default it is a Dr. Watson's error log file. These log files are saved as .log file under ...\WINNT folder for NT based systems, and as .wlg under ...\Windows\Drwatson folder for Windows 9.x systems.
    If you open just LabVIEW, without trying to open a VI, will you still receive the crash? If so, can you create a new simple VI similar to the VIs that crash LabVIEW and run it? Do you call any hardware driver or o
    ther dlls with the VIs that cause LabVIEW to crash?

    I'm assuming that the VI you posted is running as a subVI in your main and that you are getting the path somewhere else. If that's the case, then you should know that the path to a folder is different when you build a executable. For example, if you use something like Current VI's Path, in the development environment, it might be something like c:\folder\example.vi. In an executable, the path would be c:\folder\application.exe\example.vi. You need to do an extra strip path in an executable. You can use the Application property called Application.Type to determine whether or not you are working with an exe or development system to decide whether or not to do an extra strip path. There have been numerous postings on this exact same topic and if you need example code, you can search the forum.
    p.s. It's not a good idea to post your phone number and email address in a public forum unless you enjoy spam and unsolicited phone calls. It's also a bit unreasonable to expect the users of this forum (most of whom do not work for NI) to respond directly to you.

  • Runtime Error: abnormal shutdown of c:\program files\...\labview.exe

    Okay.  I've just upgraded to labview 8.0 last week and have been using it without error until the program hung when I opened it one day.  To remedy the situation and after waiting a while, I "ctrl+alt+del"ed it and forcebly closed the application.  From then on, the main lab view program will not function.  I get a runtime error saying that the program (c:\program files\...\labview.exe) was shutdown adnormally and to consult with the software manufacturer. Other NI applications function without error (ie: Measurement and Automation Explorer, Previous versions of labview, etc).
    I tried to reinstall the upgrade to no avail.  Leason learned:  ctrl+alt+del is evil.  If you have any ideas, I would greatly appreciate any input and I will relay the results.  Thanks in advance. 

    Hi Wiztrek,
    This does indeed sound like an odd error/situation. We'll do our best to get it sorted out for you though! A few questions for you:
    1. What kind of computer is this? Laptop, server, desktop, etc?
    2. What OS? Service Pack (if applicable)?
    3. When does it happen? You mentioned the splash screen -- is that as far as it gets?
    Something you could try (and this is a shot in the dark) is to rename or delete the LabVIEW.ini file (it's in the same directory as LabVIEW.exe). If that doesn't work, I think a reinstall is best to try to fix it. Remove LabVIEW 8.0 from your computer via Add/Remove Programs. Then completely delete the "LabVIEW 8.0" folder from "Program Files/National Instruments" on your harddrive.  
    When you run the installer again (after rebooting of course), make note of any errors you receive (if any). Try following the steps outlined in this KnowledgeBase -- we might get something useful out of the install log:
    How Do I Generate an Error Log File for a Software Installation?
    I hope this helps shed some light on the issue - let us know what you find out!

    TIA

    Happy update.
    After ignoring this problem for awhile and installing some NI DAQ boards,
    this problem is not happening anymore.
    Would urge NI to investigate further though. Messed me up for a couple of

  • Labview.ex​e generated error

    "I am using LabVIEW 6.1 in windows 2000. I downloaded the Agilent3499A IVI from the website and configured the driver and everything. When I run the Initialize.vi, I have this following problem.
    LabVIEW.exe has generated errors and will be closed by windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created.
    I don't know where this error log is getting created.
    Any help will be appreciated. Thanks"

    I have the same problem/ error when I try to run my VI controlling R&S CMU200, and it was due to wrong GPIB Address on the equipment.
    Would it be the same problem? How about checking that the equipment's GPIB address set is same to that the Initialize.vi is wired to.
    It may not be the problem but no harm to try.

  • ITunes.exe has generated errors problem!

    Everytime I attempt to open iTunes, it says "iTunes.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. you will need to restart the program. an error log is being created." what do i do? i've tried uninstalling Quicktime, but it never lets me finish uninstalling. an error pops up. someone please help! i would definitely appreciate it.

    If you know where this error log it generates/creates is, copy and paste it here in a post so we know whats happening.
    Just to cover basics, run antivirus to check for viruses on your PC, run any malware program you use to check for ad/spyware, and after that turn off or disable any antivirus/security programs you have before installing iTunes. there is a slew of post here on both Norton AND Mcafee and how they have interfered with installs of iTunes
    Someone may correct me on this but seems like your installer files are corrupt. run Microsofts "Windows Installer CleanUp Utility" and anything listed as iTunes or Quicktime remove with the cleaner. You can get the clean up Utility at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301

  • NIMax.exe has generated errors

    My system was working fine till this morning. I had to reconnect GPIB cables. I did that and ever since then, i'm unable to use MAX. As soon as i open MAX and click on "Devices and Interface", i get this error - "nimax.exe has generated errors and will be closed down by windows. You need to restart the program". I uninstalled LV 6.0 and MAX 3.1 and reinstalled LV 6.0 and MAX 3.2. The problem still is the same .. PLEASE HELP IMMEDIATELY !!!

    Perhaps in the reinstallation of MAX the configuration data files have been corrupted. One way we can check this is to close MAX, and then delete the Data folder found in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\MAX. This will basically give you a clean slate in MAX to start from. WARNING: Deleting the Data folder will remove all MAX configurations. New configuration files will be created when MAX is reopened. If this is something that's possible for you, please try it, and let us know if it allows you to reopen MAX and move on. If not, we'll keep trying.

    Hi Kodee,
    1)     Are using error handling in your code?  Are you getting any errors?
    2)     What version of LabVIEW are you using?  If you are using 8.0 or newer, then you can build a debuggable executable:

  • Program Error : Labview.ex​e has generated errors,,et​c? Any Ideas

    I keep getting this error popup titled Program Error.  The message reads, "LabView.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program. An error log is being created." 
    This appears to happen randomly including while a program is running, while LabView is sitting idle and even after I've closed Labview. I am running 8.0 on Windows 2000. Any ideas?

    Hello Paul,
    There is actually a great online Knowledgebase that explains where you can find error logs, and I have linked it for you here. If you don't get a prompt from LabVIEW after the crash to "investigate the error" (which simply guides you through the process of submitting your error log), then you can submit your error log directly by going here and choosing "Email NI". Be sure to include a detailed description about how to reproduce the crash or what circumstances increase the frequency of crashes like this.

    I see this sort of error notice in Bridge and Photoshop, preceded by the message " Photoshop (or Bridge) has encountered a problem and must close. Tell MS.
    Yes or No."
    It most frequently happens in PS when running Dfine 2.0. I have no clue what triggers the Bridge closure. It happens randomly.
    CS3, so nobody gives a tinkers dam, I suppose.
    I see this kind of message in software testing on a regular basis. Of course, when the test is under way, the software is generating a detailed log file which we package up as part of a bug report. Then at the bug scrubs, lively discussions ensue as to who has to fix what!
    I can only image what would happen if the Dfine people and the PS people had to sit through one of those!

  • Saved Tiffs will not open in CS2 and generate a "Could not complete your request because of a program error".

    this was supplied by Ann Shelbourne.
    Saved Tiffs will not open in CS2 and generate a "Could not complete your request because of a program error".
    These files will often open in Photoshop 7.0.1 or in CS1 but not in CS2.
    The trouble may be caused by bad dates in the EXIF data and can originate from an incorrectly-programmed digital camera; or from a scan that was created after after Jan1 of this year (because of a known bug in some scanner software).
    If someone runs into the "Could not complete your request because of a program error" problem, and does not have CS1, try opening the Tiff in TextEdit.
    The EXIF data is right at the top. Check the EXIF data for bad creation dates and change any incorrect ones there.
    Save and close; and then the file will probably open in CS2 without a murmur.

    I get the error if I open a file from within iPhoto using "OPen in external editor" and then alter it (or do not alter it) and try to save it over itself, or save it anywhere else.
    I get the error if I do "Show file" in iPhoto to see the file in the Finder. Then, if I double-click and it opens in PS, and then alter it (or do not alter it) and try to save it over itself, or save it anywhere else.

    Right.
