error 7

When I try to build an executable I keep on recieving this error: Error 7 occurred at Build Application.vi >> Dist Cmp Settings to Disk Hier.vi >> Dist Report Read Link Info Error.vi. Any ideas as to what this means? A little background on the situation, I had the vi on one computer moved it to another, worked on it, moved it back to the original computer and worked on it a bit more and then the error appeared. All the same files are on both computers and when opening the vi it locates them all, its just when I try to build the exe. I get that error. Whats going on?

To properly build an executable, open the VI on the computer that you will be building the .exe from.  Save the VI, and all Sub-Vi's if it prompts you.  Close the VI then try to build the .exe again.  It should work.

thanks for the suggestion, but I got it to work. I just had to, for some strange reason, save it to another file.
