Is it possible to convert a 2D U8 array to an IMAQ Image datatype without using the Vision toolkit?

[Warren Massey]

I have a 2D array of data (or flattened pixmap data if you prefer) that I would like to display in an "IMAQ Image" display/indicator.
 
Is this possible without using the IMAQ Vision toolkit?
 
Background:
With the Vision toolkit this is easy to do using the "IMAQ ArrayToImage" vi but the target system does not & will not have the toolkit available.

I'd prefer not using the "picture" display/indicator since the "IMAQ Image" display/indicator is already in use in the system to display images acquired using NI hardware with their associated IMAQ drivers.

Warren,
There is no way to convert from a 2D array to the IMAQ Image datatype without the Vision Development Module.
So, you have two options.
1.  Do what you mentioned in your email, use the Picture indicator or the Instensity Plot to display your images.
2.  Purchase the Vision Deployment Engine, part number 778044-01.  The Vision Deployment Engine will allow you to create executables from LabVIEW that use the Vision Development Module that will run on other machines.
