Karissap Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 I have projects written in LabVIEW 7.1 and can open them with no problems in LabVIEW 8.5 the only problems you might encounter is driver incompatibilities and if any of your code has the block diagram removed, there might be other upgrade issues too, the release notes would contain more information. The only VIs I've found that have been too old for LabVIEW 8.5 to open at all are LabVIEW version 5.1 or older. Quote Link to comment

There is this question mark image on the block for the Sub VIs Quote Link to comment

I get the same problem you do at home because I don't have any DAQ installed on that computer. It's looking for zadvd.llb that should be installed in vi.lib folder. Install your drivers and you should have no problem loading your code. http://lavag.org/old_files/monthly_06_2008/post-10515-1214568311.jpg' target="_blank"> Quote Link to comment

But how do I install the drivers ? You see I'm only in charge of the programs and the boss sends someone else to do the installation part. Quote Link to comment
Francois Normandin Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 You can download the latest drivers from NI website. Quote Link to comment
