Hi Gabi,
yes you need always the runtime to the corresponding development enviroment. Here is the link for the version 6.1 http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/746/lang/de.
You can´t convert a vi, which has no diagram.

Since you have to recompile the VI for the "new" version, you need the sourcecode. And in LV, the BD is the uncompiled sourcecode. So, if you have no BD or it is blocked by any means, you cannot recompile this VI.

i see. So what would be the meaning of ' no block diagram' error, when there is clearly a fonctionality and a diagram to the vi?

Password protected VIs can be opened and recompiled in a new LabVIEW version. The source code is there, you just can't look at it without the password. But LabVIEW can access it and recompile it and you can even save it in the new version.

Thanks!
i was totally unaware that one could save the vi withouth the diagram. it does make sense then that it is bound to a RTE and LV version. It seems the developer from whom i inherited this code was pretty possesive about his code source
talk about making twice the work...
