LabVIEW2009 application builder reports good vi broken

I have a pretty simple project that is doing some data acquistion from a compactDAQ.  VI operates fine in the development environment, but when I try to build it, I get the following error:

 

The VI is broken. Open the VI in LabVIEW and fix the errors.

C:\projects\Sandbox\CA-Hans\gui\HANS-HS-DAQ.vi
<Call Chain>Error 1003 occurred at AB_Application.lvclass:Open_Top_Level_VIs.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_Page_Preview.vi

Possible reason(s):

LabVIEW:  The VI is not executable. Most likely the VI is broken or one of its subVIs cannot be located. Select File>>Open to open the VI and then verify that you are able to run it.
 

 

 I have mass compiled the directory with no issues.  If I build a simple VI that loads the Top level in question, it does so.  I query  the execution state, and it reports Idle.  I can dynamically open the front panel and execute the VI with no problems. 

So my Question is why is the App builder choking on it?  

Additionally, I have copied the entire project to a new location using the 'save as' option, same problem.  I am NOT doing any dynamic VI calls, although that might prevent the VI from running properly... but would not keep it from loading.  

 

And on a tangent note, this harkens back to the begining of the App builder.  Errors are cryptic and there is never enough information for more advanced debugging!

PJS,

 

Error -1003 is a difficult error to trace the source. Please see the document below for a stepwise list of options:

Error 1003 Occurs When Trying to Create an Executable
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/705C2ECA081F3C7986256C0F00559B02?OpenDocument

With the DAQmx VIs, often the exclusion of polymorphic VI instances can cause this type of behavior, please see Step 8 in the KnowledgeBase to correct this issue.

 

Thank You,
