Hi,
I have a library that has several hundred VIs in it, with one top-level VI.
Each VI name has a suffix in it I would like to remove.
1.) Ideally I would like to write a script that changes the names so I don't have to do it one-by-one.
2.) Upon renaming I would like all dependencies within the library to be preserved
I'd also like to change the path and name of library itself without LabVIEW getting confused about where it's looking for various files. In particular I don't want it loading old versions of the VIs.
What is the best way to manage VI and library filenames?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Jim Kring has a utility which will do that:

As long as you have your code is in memory (open the project), it will automatically link to the new files.

This is a relatively easy task to automate using LabVIEW.
