Can I change the location of my user-defined error file to the project directory?

The LabVIEW help says that the user-defined (XML-based) error file has to be located in the labview\user.lib\errors directory.
I would rather have the file in my Project Folders directory, as this is what is distributed. 
Is there a way to make LabVIEW look elsewhere on startup.

Hey, from the LabVIEW help, it looks like you don't need to worry about it.
 
"If you use the Application Builder to create an installer, you can place a checkmark in the Install custom error code files? checkbox on the Advanced page of the Installer Properties dialog box to include LabVIEW error code files. The installer build includes all error code files from labview\project\errors and labview\user.lib\errors and installs them in the Shared\LabVIEW Run-Time\8.2\errors directory."
 
If you select that checkbox, LabVIEW takes care of it for you.
 
Hope this helps!
