Error code database is password protective without putting a password!!!

Solved!
Go to solution

 Hello,

 

I am using LabVIEW 8.6.1. Everyitme I use the "find and replace" option selected from the edit menu I get the notification "error Code database. vi is password protected...", please see the full message on the attached screen capture. I have never put a password. Can somebody suggest why this is happening and advise how to stop it. The skip option works however I don't want this inconvenience.

 

Thank you in advace

Hi thorfano,

is this  subvi from you? Maybe it's from NI and they use sometimes a password.

Hello Mike. Thank's for your response. I am not sure if I gave you understand what I am doing. In a vi that I did by myself I select "find and replace"choice (from the "edit"of labVIEW menu) and looking for a text that exists in my vi. e.g SP O2%. Then the message sent before appears. What I am doing has nothing to do with the "error code database vi" at least I can't see the correlation. 

 

Thank you

Hi thorfano,

 

it's definetely a vi from NI. It's the database for all those error messages and hidden somewhere in the "general error handler" vi.

You probably used this (or any other related function) in your vi hierarchy and so the search also tries to access this function when searching for text...

Best regards,
GerdW

Thanks Gerdw for your reply. Thus, you say its normal to get this message and I can't do nothing (rather than select "skip") to prevent message apperance. Am I right?

 

Thanks in advance

If you only want to search in your current VI then select that as scope. If you want to search in all VIs loaded into a particular instance I do not think you can avoid that stupid dialog currently.

Isn't there a 'Ignore VI.lib' Setting for that dialog as well?

 

That should help.

Ahhh yes, that seems to be a feature since LabVIEW 8.0.

Good morning,

 

Thank you all for the help, the choice "ignore vis in vi.lib" is ticked (selected) and I wonder why it doesn't work. I checked and found that the "error code database vi"is inside the vi lib as expected. I also checked if somehow the "error code database vi" is present in another location in my computer, nothing found. 

 

Best regards
