I'm tring to convert a labview project from 5.0 version to 8.6 version. I know that direct conversion is not possible. I saw at this link:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/8387
that conversion is possible by intermediate comnversion with 8.0 version (I have it).
Unlikely somethings wrong happen when I try to open my original labview 5.0 .vi with 8.0 version.
Do someone know alternative version to convert my project????
thanks in advance

"Unlikely somethings wrong happen" is not very descriptive. There should be no problems opening the old VI. Provide details on the issues you are having.

Sorry, that's right...
the message is:
"the file is not a valid labview file..."
???
I use it with labview 5.0 without issue

That appears to be a corrupt VI. I am unable to open it even with 5.1.1.

this is strange because I open it without problems with labview 5.0. I try to attach it again
thanks

There is still a problem with that VI. Are you sure it's written in LV 5. I get the error which is shown below. But PLEASE move this conversion to HERE

Hi albs,
have you ever handled your vi file as text file instead of binary?
