Dear muks,

Today itself my ranking was in floating changing from trusted to nothing, nothing to trusted......... for lot of times. I was very disturbed by this. Anyway as you told in your other thread,

Let's forgive and forget

YKIGTBABDW you finally realize that the error in your VI wasn't because of the node you thought it was, but rather an invalid file read previously. In fact, you were so sure that the error stemmed from what you thought it did, that you never bothered to double check everything up the line. And of course, when you finally did wise up, the problem was all because of an extra 'x' in the file extension...

Oh my.......... Did that really happen?

Yep...I had set the VI up to run with a little init file in Excel so the user could change the default values without having to worry about knowing what to change in LabVIEW. I have Excel '07 on the dev computer, so had set up the init file in that, which saves it as a *.xlsx by default. Well, the computers which will be using the VI have an older version of Excel, so I had to change the init file to a *.xls. Unfortunately, I forgot to change the file path that called it 😞 . Down the line, a Variant to Data was returning an error about the data type not being correct. Apparently, "no data" != "array" 😉 Now I'm just hoping that mistake doesn't set the trend for the rest of the day / week...
