  • Problem with Reporte Generation Toolkit for Microsoft Office 2010

    When I use the Report Generation Toolkit (LabVIEW 2010), and Office 2010,  the tables generated are bad.
    In office 2007 in the tables are correct.
    Someone can help me solve this problem?

    The solution referenced in your post does not actually workas far as I can tell... at least for LV2011 and Office2010 on Win7
    Am I missing something here?

  • Problem with report generation toolkit when installed new office 2010

    Dear all, I had  LabView 8.6.1 and report generation toolkit for MSoffice 2003 perfectly working in my laptop.
    Now I have added MSoffice 2010 and report generation toolkit does not work anymore since it is linked to new office.
    How can I inform Labview to link report generation toolkit to the old  MSoffice 2003?
    regards
    Max

    The Report Generation Toolkit is ActiveX based.  When you install the newest version of Office it registers the ActiveX server for that software, which the toolkit adapts to and uses.
    Uninstalling Office 2010 would solve the issue, otherwise you will need to look at unregistering the 2010 component of Office ActiveX - but I'm not sure if that's possible.

  • Problem for Report Generation Toolkit for excel 2000

    Hi all,
    Now I am Developing my program with Report Generation Toolkit 1.1.0 and Labview 7.1.
    In my computer I am using Excel XP, and there is not any problem. But when I build to
    a exe file, and use in a computer with Excel 2000, it didn't work.
    And I try to check the source file in this computer, I found that there any some connection
    error. And this is caused by the active X class. As I know Excel 2000 is using Microsoft Excel
    Object Library 9.0, but i cannot find it in the list of active x. So it is using Microsoft Excel Object
    Library with a very old verison. So in the property node there are missing functions, such as the
    UsedRange in _Worksheet in the Excel_Get_Range.vi. However, In VBA, I can find the 9.0 Library.
    Is it the problem of 9.0 library? How can I solve the problem? How can I upgrade the library to 10.0?
    Thanks.
    Regard,
    Ryan

    Hi Mike,
    Since my program is for all the staff in office, everyone may use it.
    I cannot call the whole office to upgrade the excel to XP.
    And I think Report Generation Toolkit is alway support Excel 2000,
    since the old version of it is not support for Excel XP.
    Regard,
    Ryan

  • LabVIEW VI with Report Generation Toolkit elements in a TestStand sequence does not run with a LabVIEW 8.5 Run-Time Engine

    Hi all,
    I am using LabVIEW 8.5.1 and TestStand 4.1. I have done a TestStand sequence with a VI in it, which uses Report Generation Toolkit elements. On my machine I am using LabVIEW and TestStand with a Development System license. On the other machine I am using TestStand with a Base Deployment license and I have chosen the LabVIEW 8.5 Run-Time Engine in the Adapter Configuration. Everything is running well except of this VI with Report Generation Toolkit elements. The error message is showing that the VI is not executable. It works well only after I have installed LabVIEW with an Evaluation license and chosen LabVIEW 8.5 Development System in the Adapter Configuration.
    I have found other posts and a document in the KnowledgeBase with a similar problem: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/8A0E6274D9B​D7B1986256F62006AD402?OpenDocument But I am not using EXE files in my sequence, so I don't know how to solve mine. Anybody has an idea?
    Solved!

    Hello guys,
    thank you very much for your answers!
    @Ruediger:
    I tried to follow the instruction for Method 2 in the mentioned document: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/F3DC40A6E3F​3B25B862570AD005D1D3D?OpenDocument, but the steps on my machine are different starting from step 4. After I click "Continue..." in step 3, I dont get a window, the system just makes a new folder with the same VI. 
    To be honest, I am new to LabVIEW and have some difficulties at this time. What I understood from your reply is, that I need to make a LLB-File, where the files from Report Generation Toolkit are in!?
    @GovBob:
    I was following the instruction in the document: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9E00E7EFE06​35E678625734600779EFE, but it wasnt working. Can you please tell me how I can check if the VI Server is installed and running on the machine?
    I am using LabVIEW 8.5.1 and TestStand 4.1 on my machine, on the deploy machine there is TestStand 4.1.1. The version of my Report Generation Toolkit is 1.1.2.
    Kind regards, Roman

  • Problem with the number format in the graph axis with Report Generation Toolkit.

    Hi!
    I'm trying to use the Report Generation Toolkit to plot some graphs in Excel.
    My first problem is that I don't know how to configure the number format in the Excel Set Graph Font.vi so that my numbers are correctly displayed in the graph's axis. The only given option is general (0,0) but this is not enough for me, my numbers can get really small so I need engineering notation or fraccional format.
    Second: I also insert a table with the graph source data, but the numbers are not correctly displayed either: for example: 
    0,75 is shown as: 
    0,750000
    but 1,25  is shown as: 
    1!250!000
    My guess is I am making to much or wrong string to number conversions or Excel is getting it wrong but I can't find my way...
    Can someone help me with this?
    Thanks,
    Isabel

    Here is my VI, it's just a trial so it can look messy...
    Thanks,
    Isabel

  • Problems in using Application Builder to Build a exe file with Report generation Toolkit

    Hello,
    It's my first time to build exe. But I have Problem  when the VI have Report Generation toolkit VI.
    It's no problem in VI Format , But It can't work when I build as EXE format
    Can Anyone help me, and state step clearly in how to  solve the problems?
    Thank you!!

    If the code works OK in the development system but not in an executable there are a few things you can check. The two most likely causes are:
    There is an error occuring that your code isn't reporting.
    There is a file path that under the executable isn't valid.
    First make sure that all the error clusters are daisy-chained together in the subVI that you wrote to create and populate the excel file. Next make sure that the end of that chain goes to an indicator on the VI's front panel.
    Second, make sure there are indicators on other key parameters like the path the file is trying to write to.
    Third, temporarily modify the VI properties of that excel IO VI to open it's front panel when called, and rebuild your application. The next time you run the application the front panel will open when you try to write to the excel file and you should be able to see what is happening.

  • Need help with report generation toolkit

    I'm having a really hard time finding a solution for my problem. I'm measuring a distance and a diameter simultaneously. The outcoming values have a depency and are stored in a 2-D array.  I want to export this array to an excel table and x-y-chart (distance is x and diameter y). So far I can export the data to a table, however the charts produced are useless. Can somebody please help me? I'm almost crying since I'm trying to find a solution for 3 days now.
    Additionally, after one measurement is done, the user should have the possibility to do the next measurement, and the data has to be stored in the same excel file, in another worksheet. How can I do this?

    Hi!
    If you want a nice graph in Excel based on your data you have input there, I would recommend creating a macro that builds your graph. Read more about macro, Excel and LabVIEW here. I don't have the Report Generation toolkit, but I think you can send macros with it too.

  • Error 7 with Report Generation Toolkit

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm trying to generate an Excel sheet report for some readings using "Report Generation toolkit" But when trying to generate the report, the report generation part of code is executed and gives Error(7) and there is no report is generated.
    The Code I use is atached in the following Link:
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/9n4brimucsd0xts/Report%2​0Generation.rar
    Can I get help please?
    Thanks in advance
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I was able to download and open your compressed file.  I unpacked it into a folder.
    There are numerous peculiarities that lead me to ask "Are you trying to learn LabVIEW on your own, without a mentor and without training and guidance"?  Here are some of the things that I noticed:
    Although a Report Generation .lvproj, .aliases, and .lvlps file, the Project, when opened, was empty!  Since Projects were added to LabVIEW, almost all development should take place in a Project, but you do not appear to be doing so.
    You have an Event Loop (good) to handle pressing Start, Stop, and Report buttons.  But instead of using Boolean controls with a Latch property and using a "Value Changed" event, you use Switch Until Released (which, so far, I've never used) and a Mouse Down Event.  I suppose this could work, but I've never seen this pattern.
    You are writing an Excel Report, but are not using the Excel-specific VIs (such as Excel Easy Table).  Why (or Why Not)?  The basic idea of an Excel Report is that you create the 2D text data you want to write into Excel, then with a few simple VIs, you open Excel, write the Table, and save the Report.  In particular, you don't write out something that resembles the columns of the first few rows of a Spreadsheet (Date, Time, Test, etc.).
    Now to your specific question, Error 7.  Do you know what this error means?  If you click on Help, choose Explain Error, and put in 7, you will see this means "File Not Found".  Well, there is an obvious place where a File is used, right when your program starts.  I recommend that you put a Probe (do you know about Probes?) or an Indicator on the path going into the main For loop and see what File you are trying to open (hint -- there's an error in the way you build the path, but you should be able to figure out how to fix it).
    Good luck.  Hope these suggestions get you on a Better Path.

  • Excel value range with Report Generation Toolkit

    I have an excel sheet.  I want to find out the range for cells with values.  At least, I want the find out what's the last row that has values in it.  I tried "Excel Get Last Row.vi" in the report generation toolkit, but it would treat a blank cell as a valued cell if it is filled with another color.  Therefore, that won't work. 
    I don't want to use active x, and I don't want to write a separate vi to search for the last row.  I want to see is there a way to use the report generation toolkit.  Can I somehow get a hidden method from the class?  I would think that, since they are charging for the report generation toolkit, a simple function like that should be included.  Thanks!
    Kudos and Accepted as Solution are welcome!

    I am pretty sure that the Report Generation Toolkit does use ActiveX, so you are using it even if you dont want to.
    Seems to be how the UsedRange function is being used in the toolkit.
    See here for some examples: http://blog.contextures.com/archives/2012/03/01/select-actual-used-range-in-excel-sheet/
    I tried, and it does not find the blank cells with colored backgrounds.
    This will require some activeX modifications though.

  • Path to save problem in report generation toolkit

    Hi,
    I am newbie in LabVIEW. I am using MS Office Report.VI from Report Generation Toolkit, and I want to let the user to choose the save location for the report. I tried to wire path control to "Path to Save Report" input on MS Office Report.VI . But It doesn't work, It seems like the destination choosen from path is overlapping with the base file destination on "Configure Save to file options".
    How do resolve this issue??
    Thanks

    You are using an express vi hence you are limited in options. Express vis are a good starting point but if you need to customise , you may need to use individual vis.
    Try searching for 'office' in example finder (Help >> Find Examples), you will find a lot of them, chose one that suits you.
    Hope this helps.

  • Exe created with Report Generation toolkit does not work for all users

    I created a exicutable with the report generation toolkit and it only works with some of my users. I use microsoft 2007 and anyone that has microsoft 2007 my exe works well. Most of my users that have microsoft 2010 are able to use my program as well. However, there is one user with 2010 and Windows 2007 that cant get my program to work.
    Any suggestions for troubleshooting this?
    Thanks

    The most likely issue is due to the fact that Microsoft changes the ActiveX object model of Office for each version of Office. The Report Generation Toolkit does a pretty good job of handling this, but it is not 100% effective. Search, for example on the "Set Cell Border" function and you will see what I mean. In these cases it's up to you to handle this issue. How you handle it really depends on your situation. For us to provide a more concrete answer you will need to provide further details, such as what toolkit function is "not working" (whatever that means), and who you "users" are. Is this an internal distribution? Are you selling this program? Is this code written for a project with a specific customer?

  • Print number of pages with Report Generation toolkit

    I use the report generation toolkit and the Print Report.vi to print a table and some text extracted from a MS Access database. The result of this is a print out that takes up several pages.
    Now, on each page i want something like (Page x of y), and I do not want to buy more expensive NI packages for this simple thing. I know it should be possible since the Report Express vi can do it --- which for me is a useless vi.
    I do not consider it a nice solution to try and keep track of the number of pages myself by dividing the table into more tables and use the new page vi between each "page table". This I would not like to do since depending on paper size, font size, and length of text strings in each cell this will be virtually impossible.
    By moving into the Print Report.vi I've tried to see if I somehow can extract the info --- I've not found anything usefull but expect a workaround to possible.
    Any suggestions?
    Cheers,
    Martin

    Hi Skinny,
    There are some tokens you can use in the headers and footers of Standard Reports generated by the Report Generation VIs.  If you take a look at [LabVIEW]\examples\reports\TextReportExample.llb\Text Report Example.vi, you'll see that the right footer text of the report has the token <pagenofm>, which generates a footer of the form "1 of 10", to indicate page 1 out of 10 pages.  There's also another tag you can use, <page>, that just lists the page number itself without a total number of pages.  If you look at the help for the Set Report Header Text.vi or Set Report Footer Text.vi, you'll see a link in the help for all the different "tokens" you can use with the report header and footer.  Actually, now that I think about it, you can use these tokens anywhere in the report, including the body text.
    Good luck,

  • Control checkbox form field in word with report generation toolkit for Microsoft office

    Hi all,
    Happy New Year!
    I insert in the word template the check box form field. It has a bookmark name "Check1".
    Now I'm trying to checked or unchecked this field using the report generation toolkit for Microsoft office and I couldn't. If anyone now how to do it? I'm using LabView 8.0
    Thanks in advance,
    Boris
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Boris,
    The Microsoft Office Toolkit does not have support for checking/unchecking check box forum field. You would have to research the activex functionality that enables this to be checked or unchecked and then do the activex calls yourself. I did hear of one csutomer who used a special font to write a blank box or a checkbox into a word document and changed it that way as well.
    Maybe http://www.ozgrid.com/forum/showthread.php?t=53715 gives a hint to an activex reference
