We convert user-entered data strings into file and path names for
identification of the test data files. I needed to create a trap that
would (1.) keep the system from trying to create an illegal file or
directory name and (2.) notify the user immediately of invalid characters.
I read through what you guys were doing and then came up with this. It
works with our application that is running in LabVIEW 8.5
