converting labview from unix into windows

I need to convert some labview programs that were written in a UNIX environment to a PC windows operating system. I have converted the files over to my PC desktop. The problem is I am trying to run libraries that were compiled in unix and have the extension .so at the end. When I open the labview program it can not find these .so libraries and when I point to their location it states that this is not a valid windows image. Is there anything I can do to convert these .so libraries into something labview can read.
 
Thanks

As far as I know, the equivalent of a shared object in windows is a DLL - DLLs are very common in windows and are also called through the Call Library Function node. You will presumably need to take your C code and compile as a DLL using a windows compiler. I'm not sure how many modifications you will need to make to the C code.
