Upgraded LV7 to 8.2.1 and List Folder pattern does not work anymore as it did

Hi
I have upgraded LV7 to 8.2.1 and use XP.
In a vi developed in LV7 I used the List Folder with pattern input to check wether a file name already exist in a folder  (path). This worked very well in LV 7 as the function return the filename if the exisiting filename matched the pattern input. In 8.2.1 this fucntion still exists but it does not return the filename as it used to do which is rather annoying.
Has anybody else experienced this ie is it a bug? or is the operation of the function changed?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Cheers
Jack

Hi Jack,
I can understand your frustration..   We had a thread complaining about the changes when it was first introducted.  Now that I'm used to it, I wouldn't go back..
However, you can keep all versions of Labview installed on the same PC, meaning that Labview versions 7.0, 7.1, 8.0, 8.2, 8.5 can all happily co-exist on the same PC.  The benefit is that you can use the original version that you developped your code and continue to enhance the code using the original version without having to adapt to the newer version.  However, going up versions should be compatible, unless you are adding new features.
There is one catch in what I described.  And you must keep a backup copy of your code.  If you open an older version using a newer version and save it, you cannot open it again in your older version, unless you use Save As Previous.  For that reason, it is best to keep an extra copy somewhere (which is always good practice anyway).
Hope this helps,
RayR

  • Automatic Selected Item of List Builder Component Does not work (anymore)

    Hi all,
    Í'm working with Xcelsius Engage 2008 (version 5.3.2.0) and the automatic selection of an item at runtime of the list builder component does not work anymore. In a previous version it worked very well.
    Here's the case: at runtime I want that the list builder component automatically puts the first item in the list to the destination section and selects it, so that a graph can show the underlying pushed data. In the previous version it worked o.k., but now at runtime the destination section remains empty at startup. If I interactively select an item from the source section to the destination section and update the list builder, the data is shown correctly, but it must done automatically, which worked o.k. in an earlier version of Xcelsius 2008...
    This are my settings of the list builder component (which was running correctly earlier..):
    -at the general tab I defined a range of labels
    -at the general tab I defined 2 data column insertion series
    -at the behaviour-common tab I defined selected items: position mode; items: the first item of the label list; insert items at runtime
    -all of the data comes from an external xml data source
    You can find an example of the visualisation at: http://onderzoek2.evinet.nl/projecten/10169/dynarap.htm. You will see that at start-up there is no item visible and selected in the destination section of the list builder....
    I've tried every combinations of settings, build up the component from scratch, but its not working (anymore).
    Greetings Erik-Jan Vriens

    Hi njnits,
    Print view button is a standard component of Xcelsius: look at it in the IDE
    Exporting to Powerpoint is also a standard functionality, so yes. For this particular dashboard/report all data resides in an external xml-file which have to be accessible for Powerpoint
    All visualisations, not only the table,  in this/report fetch their data from an external xml-file, but a QaaWS-connection will also do the trick. You will have to write this dedicated service. In our case the xml-data is also generated automatically.
    The external data is best defined as a sort of matrix, consisting of approx. 100 columns by 1000 rows. I agree it takes a lot of Xcelsius but it does the job....
    Hopes this info helps....

  • After the upgrade to Mozilla 32 using csv files to import data does not work anymore. What should I do?

    Hello,
    After the latest upgrade to Mozilla 32 a previously recorded imacros scirpt in which the data was being imported into mozilla from a csv file keeps erroring out. This same problem occurred with the with the upgrade to Mozilla 30 and was fixed when Mozilla was upgraded to 31. Can you please advise on how to correct the problem so that csv files can be used in conjunction with imacros scripts. I would like to point out that imacros still works without the use of csv files, but when you introduce a csv to the script the imacros does not work.
    Thank you,
    Eugene

    hello eugene, please directly contact the imacros extension developers through the means provided at their [http://forum.iopus.com/viewforum.php?f=11 forum] - they can likely give you more detailed guidance and are the only ones who can fix bugs or make necessary adjustments in the addon for new firefox versions. thank you...

  • "List Folder" function does not work any more on compiled .exe files in LabVIEW 8.2

    I used "List Folder" function in a splash screen VI to read the number of the subVIs within the .exe file. The number was used to create a progress bar. It worked with LabVIEW 8.00 but with 8.20 I get the error code 13 that means "LabVIEW:  File is not a resource file."
    I wonder is it a bug or a feature? Up to now I could not find any info about changing the .exe file format.
    If it is a feature, is there a way to get the list or any other information to make a progress bar 0...100%?
    With best regards,
    Mikhail Nagoga

    In LV 8.2, NI changed the exe format so that it no longer functions as an LLB. As far as I know, this is a feature and will not be changed back. I think it was changed to support some sort of security requirements in Windows Vista, but I don't remember where I got that notion from.
    As a workaround, you can build the exe as a small exe with an LLB or maybe save the list of VIs elsewhere (for example, have all of them as subVIs of the splash screen).

    "Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching your billing information on your single account.

  • After "upgrading" from trial to FCPX 10.0.3 multi cam does not work

    After "upgrading" from trial to FCPX 10.0.3, multi cam does not work anymore. Everything was fine in the trial version, but now the multicam clip I made in trail is shown, but not with the 4 windows, only the first angle can be seen. And I can not find (import) the cuts I made in the trail. The settings are the same in both versions. Am I missing something? Is it possible that I have to start from scratch and all work is lost?
    When I double click the multi cam clip I see all four angles in the timeline, one underneath the other... 
    Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    There is an excellent podcast tutorial series called "Creative COW Final Cut Help Tutorials Podcast (SD)"
    in the iTunes Store.
    The latest three are video podcasts and go into great depth concerning the new Multicam in 10.0.3
    Can't recommend them enough.

  • After upgrading to OS 10.9.1 Aperature 3.2.3 does not work and I'm not able to download new version of Aperature.

    After upgrading to OS 10.9.1 Aperature 3.2.3 does not work and I have not been able to download upgrade of Aperature?

    Is Aperture installed in the "Application"s folder and simply named Aperture?  If not, move it back to "Applications". Did you buy Aperture from the App Store or as a boxed Retail version?
    Relaunch the App Store and sign in with your Apple ID (in the Store menu). Reload the "Purchased" page of the App Store. Do see Aperture on the Purchased tab or perhaps the "Accept" portion of the "Purchased" page? If in the "Accept" portion, accept it to your AppleID  and install it. Else look again at the Update page.
    For some forum members the update did only appear  until after setting the primary system language to English and rebooting the Mac.  This bug is supposed to have been fixed with the update to 10.9.1, but try it, if all else should fail.

    There is no legitimate (Apple supported) way to downgrad an iOS on a device.  Have you tried downloading/installing a new (free) app.  That works for many users with that problem.

  • Since upgrade to v29, pinned tabs don't appear and sometimes all tabs don't appear and open menu button does not work

    My pinned tabs don't appear at any start and at some starts, I don't see the bookmarks toolbar (I can restore that by removing it from view-toolbars and then reselecting it). when this happens, FF also does not show any tabs and the Menu button does not work.
    I have tried various suggestions found on here like deleting the sessionstore.js and re-installing FF, also tried disabling hardware acceleration in safe mode and still have the same problems.
    Am reluctant to reset FF in case I lose my favourites and Bookmarks, is there anything else I can try?

    Firefox may not have closed properly.<br />
    You can try to update to Firefox 29.0.1 to be released tomorrow (Friday) to see if that helps with this issue.

  • Why does Adobe sendnow work and the newest and greatest Adobe Send does not work?

    Why does Adobe sendnow work and the newest and greatest Adobe Send does not work? I wasted about 8 hours on trying to get Adobe Send to upload 269 files that amounted to 469MB. When it did not work I made a zip file and after a lot of wasted run time that did not work. The first situation gives little indication of when a file is loaded compared to Adobe SendNow. In both cases with Send it failed with a message like only the first 50 can be loaded. When I went and looked none of them had been loaded. With the zip file (I wanted to hide the individual files so they would not be counted) it appeared to work but very slowly and finally said it was done and I went and looked and it had done anything for oever 2 hours except a false "I'm runninng" indication.
    Thus, I took a chance with Adobe SendNow and it works great. It never gave me a limit on the amount of files nor on the size of the complete job. It shows me one file at a time when it has finished with the file uploading it. SendNow has never given me any problems.
    Why woiuld you want to change the program from SendNow to Send without the newest program being the best, fastest, user friendly program of the two? It just doesn't make sense to me. I suggest that Adobe keep SendNow working until Send is fixed. I would also suggest that SendNow and how it looks be kept, called Send, then modify Send one thing at a time until you get it to the point you need it to be for Acrobat. I have heard nothing good and now I have experienced it that Send is a piece of junk. I wasted most of my work day on giving Adobe the benefit of the doubt to find out I made a very bad decision to trust Adobe to make good decisions on the transfer of a function to another place .... both Adobe's responsibility.without making it painless for your customers that totally rely on you. Don't throw away customer confidence as it is very hard to get it back.

    Funny how you answer to "troll". (What's your handle on AT&T forums?)
    Yep! Verizon living up to it's contractual obligations by not releasing updates. Caveat emptor!
    I think there are some reasonable expectations here to keep customer's happy. When one carrier offers upgrades there is an expectation the same will happen across all the carriers. We have seen that except Big Red.
    Verizon could have said the update is in MS court months ago and stilled the voice of the disgruntled, or at least redirected it, but instead chose to be silent. Not for market share but for partial blame I think.
    We will have to agree to disagree since you only see Terms & Conditions and I, see customer satisfaction.

  • While updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    while updating my ipad to new software through itunes it got stuck and does not work anymore - it just displays the screen with symbols of itunes and the cable to connect to it - help - what should i do?

    Disconnect the iPad, do a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!, reconnect and follow the prompts.
    If that does not work then see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
