This program is a good example use of DAQ toolbox instructions for hardware interfacing. The adapter chosen here is parallel port. Program contains a simple GUI to monitor the progress. LPT gives an O/p varying from 2.08 to2.35 volt. It is sufficient for ULN2003. Use a buffer before it. Hope you will find it helpfully .
