The Save Report to File.vi requires the "report file path" terminal to be wired, but is not set as a required inputThe VI will return Error -41003 when running the VI if the path is not wired or empty. This requirement is enforced in the VI itself, so it will not break the run arrow. Workaround: Wire the file path of the report to the VI. |

This problem only exists with Office 2007. Other versions - Office 2003 and Office 2010 do not exhibit this behavior.
