Issue Details

I created an application in LabVIEW that generates a graph report in Excel, when I run the program it makes Excel crash with the message:
Error -41105 occurred at
NI_ReportGenerationToolkit.lvlib:MSGraph
Component Check vi -> NI_Excel.lvclass:Excel
Insert Graph vi -> Excel Report - Graph
Generation vi 


How to solve this error?



 

Solution

When creating a constant for the window state of the Create Report VI
The minimized option can cause Excel to crash and to generate the Error -41105.
To avoid this, use the Excel Bring to Front VI  and control the Excel window state through it instead.

Additional Information

This kind of errors with ReportGenerationToolkit can sometimes appear and usually are system dependent.
