LabVIEW 5 (!) Problems Building Executable from LLB

Looking for advice from other oldtimers on the list.  I'm working for a client to make mods to a very old test stand that uses LabVIEW 5.0.  All the files are located in an LLB.  When I run the files from the LLB, everything works well, but when I use Application Builder to make an executable, I get an error saying that a subVI is not executable.  Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this?

Thanks very much.

Since it was in a llb it was no problem to copy it to another llb,.then proceed to building exe. or try to make a new project  and start it out by copying/saving the vi's to a directory then include to your new project.



Thank you & Best regards

It is in LabVIEW 5, so applications are not built from projects.  I think that is where my confusion starts...

 

Thanks for the reply.

You can then (in "Source File Settings") put all sub VI's in the new llb. I'm not sure where all the support vi's go. Probably in the main exe, but if they end up in the llb, you're done!
