It worked last year. To me, it doesn't look like it has changed from last years code. Could the way they use RefNum Registry Set VIs this year be something to do with it? Maybe the code has to be modified to use them?

Where in the Dashboard does it acknowledge Joystick buttons? I missed that...
Ah! That does make sense. We'll take a look at the new basic robot code and Extrapolate an example from that.

Much appreciated!

As for the Joystick button press acknowledgement in the dashboard - I forget which page it is on (I think it is the setup page where you can re-arrange the joystick ports). When you press any button, the joystick name changes to a blue colour acknowledging the button press.

Cheers,
