Converting LV 7 to LV 6.1

Does anybody of you know a way to convert LV7-VI's to LV6.1? I don't need to run them, I want to look at them. I am asking because I started with LV7 but had to change to LV6.1. My "old" VI's are not running anymore.

Hello,

You can save your VI into the previous version of LabVIEW by going to File >> Save with options >> Save for previous. Anyway most of VI writing in LV 6.1 can be read and run in LV 7, without any change.

Hope this help

You can convert LabView 7 vi;s to version 6.1.

From the
File menu, select
Save with Options, then select
Save For Previous

However, some new features of version 7.0 will not convert to 6.1

Thanks for your hints, but they all need an INSTALLED version of LabVIEW 7. Do you know a way without installing the new version again?

By the way, I cannot open the new files. If I try the message "VI version (7.0) is newer than LabVIEW version (6.1)."

Hello,

You may want to post your vi's on this Discussion forum and someone will probably be glad to convert them.
