Hello Everyone,
My company is thinking of buying Origin. But first, to check out the program, we must open one of our binary files that was made in LabView. Can anyone help me out by helping me write a program to import one of these files

Hi Rick S,

What do you mean by binary file made in LabVIEW? Are you creating a binary file with some simple structure using LabVIEW code? If yes, you can try our Import Wizard and use the Binary Import mode (Menu item File->Import...->Import Wizard and then press F1 for help once the dialog is up.

If the file structure is more complicated, one could write custom Origin C code or even access some external DLL from Origin C to read the data into Origin.

Note also that if you plan to use Origin with LabVIEW, it may be more efficient to directly push your data from LabVIEW into Origin using the Automation (COM) server capability, where LabVIEW can launch Origin as a server application and push data into Origin, save the data to OPJ, send script commands to process data etc. Origin is shipped with a selection of SubVIs that can be used in your VI to communicate with Origin.

There is also a LabVIEW browser tool accessible from the Tools menu which can be used to open and run a LabVIEW VI etc.

You can find more information about LabVIEW connectivity in the general Origin help file under the topic:
Interfacing with Other Applications->LabVIEW
