Applications that use the DIAdem Connectivity Library that are installed using a distribution built in LabWindows/CVI might generate run-time errors related to the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 run-time not being installed.

Workaround: Either include the full LabWindows/CVI Run-Time Engine in the distribution, or download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable package from the Microsoft website.

Workaround: Make sure the DLL is in a directory where the system can locate it (e.g., the current working directory or the system path).

Return
After widening the inc/dec arrows, the entire area of the arrows is not clickable.
This bug will only manifest itself if the left edge of the control label does not extend all the way to the left edge of the inc/dec arrows.

Workaround: If a label is not needed for the control, the user can add a label and then move it off screen programmatically using the ATTR_LABEL_LEFT and ATTR_LABEL_TOP attributes. The idea is to move it up and left far enough that it always is off screen, thereby ensuring the label always extends past the left edge of the inc/dec arrows.
