Yeah, Labview is easy to get a project started but not so easy to support.? We have a ton of Labview code at work, and it's a nightmare to change anything.? Trying to use Matlab from now on.Probably I will try Python to control my instruments in my garage lab at some point.Good luck!Jim FSent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy smartphone

Wow, I know it¡¯s a great tool,and probably easier, and more versatile, to program in than VBA, or VB6,but $3000? I¡¯ll stick with manually writing my own test software VBA ( Iactually prefer it, because databasing collected data is a natural? withAccess/VBA). Screw. Shots through a utility like OpenChoice Desktop andGPIB is quite good. You grab a screen shot and paste it in to yourCalibration document in Word. OpenChoice. I do love my TDS3032s for that.They are getting old too.Dave>>
