@dslauria can you take a stab at this one?

There are a couple of examples in the wrapper that should allow you to do this. The easiest is probably to use the Refprop_Example_main.vi example. Using the TP code, you can select your fluid and input the temperature and pressure, and it should give you back everything, including Enthalpy (H):

It's also worth looking at the Refprop Tester vi and project, because that will help you to verify that you have the REFPROP dll installed and configured properly, as well as giving you examples of each of the available functions of REFPROP in isolation which might make them easier to understand.
