question| LabVIEW Multiple comps

Hello,
Is it possible to work on the same LV poject using multiple computers simultaneously?

if it is, how can you do it?

i figured that simply sharing the files over a network would mess things up cuz *.lvproj files won't be synced..

I can't say that I've tried it. The project tends to lock files as they are opened. I can't say for sure that it will work, but since the project isn't much more than a list of file references, most things should be fine. You may gain further isolation by defining libraries for subsystems.

I'm curious to know what issues you run into.

What we normally do is use a source control system and treat the project as a normal file. Since it is XML you can diff it if needed, but avoid it if you can.
