Error 1430 when adding a new VI to the program

[Mattjk]

I have a program I developed in LV 2009 in 2009 and now I am updating it.  I accidently opened it up in 2010 and saved it.  There are Microsoft office tools that were built into LV 2009 that are removed in 2010 that I had used in my program.  So I had to save as previous version (2009).  After everything worked and I could run the code and compile I continued developing.  At one point I tried to compile and got an Error.

Visit the Request Support page at ni.com/ask to learn more about resolving this problem. Use the following information as a reference:

Error 1430 occurred at Create Folder in Create Directory Recursive.vi->AB_Destination.lvclass:Create_Destination.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Create_Destinations.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Create_Destinations.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_EXE.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build_from_Wizard.vi->AB_UI_Frmwk_Build.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_UI_FRAMEWORK.vi->AB_Item_OnDoProperties.vi->AB_Item_OnDoProperties.vi.ProxyCaller

Possible reason(s):

LabVIEW: The path is empty or relative. You must use an absolute path.

<Not A Path>

I have now figured out that if I add a new VI to the program, it gives this error.  If I remove the VI, it compiles with no errors.  If I add a blank VI with no code, it gives  the error.  I have worked as far as I could without adding a VI but now i need a pop up window and need to the VI.  The code is too large to fit the max 6MB requirements.

Thanks

Matt

Hi mattyk,

When you say compile, do you mean press the run button? When exactly does this error show up?

I suggest you try copying all of your VIs into a new project, and try running the new project. It sounds like your project may have been corrupted in the process of upgrading and re-saving to a previous version.

I hope this helps! Regards,

Thanks for the help.  It was as easy as doing a file "save as" in the project and resaving the project as a different name.
