I'm making sure the "FileFolder" value is set correctly for the computer I am deploying to, and the ModbusRTUCom1 driver seems to be working fine.

It sounds like you are trying to log to a directory the application does not have access to. Try putting ".\" in file folder and see if it creates a file in the same directory as the executable.

Yes that works Archie, thank you very much!   The "\" doesn't stay in there, just the "." (without the quotes).  A little buried for some to find but a solid work around until I can figure out if I can build a menu to change the default save location.
