Joe, don't worry about it being 'unsupported' NI support will answer your questions for the 2 latest LabVIEW major releases, meaning all 7.x and 8.x LabVIEW versions. This (like all things) isn't exactly set in stone, so follow our official supported software list
here. With regards to future versions of LabVIEW, we thank all those who participate in the beta program but unfortunately, we cannot discuss any details of that software outside of the appropriate beta forums. Anyway, it sounds like we are looking into your issue and will hopefully have it fixed in a future version of LabVIEW. If you have any questions about how to find a good workaround for your current sw version, I encourage you to continue working with the LabVIEW forum community or to contact support directly.
Thanks a bunch,
