Lab VIEW Version Converter

[tulsidasa]

   Greetings All,

   Just as NI MAX and License Manager are applications that come bundled with Lab VIEW, could NI develop a Converter that converts a single vi or library, or project from its current version to a user-specified version? Within the application itself will be the heritage hierarchy which maps both direct and indirect conversion processes, which the user need not try to manage. Hopefully, we can shine some light on an issue which could resolve the myriad of requests for which the entire Version Conversion Forum was formed to begin with. Thanks. 🙂
