Why does LabVIEW Application Builder 8.0.1 create an executable that will not run?

My VI runs perfectly.  But when I generate the executable, it will not run.  I get a "File Not Found" error.  The file it can't find is "File Open+.VI" from vi.lib.  I've tried copying File Open+.vi into my project.  If still generates the same error.

There error is coming out of FlowCal Server.  You use the current VI path to build up the file paths.  That works great in development but when you compile a VI into an exe, an extra layer is added.  See this KB http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/FD7DE8BC8FFC256C862565F4006BE363?OpenDocument

So when its an exe you need to strip the path one more time.
