Copy Graph Properties conversion issue to 8.2

Hi everyone!

    I did some searching last week on a way to save all the property settings from a graph that a user might make. I came accross a website http://www.kshif.com/lv/index.html There I found some vi's created in lv 7.1 "Property saver" that did everything I needed. The problem I have is this: In the example llb there is a vi call "4 - Copy graph properties.vi" when I convert these vis to lv 8.2 I get alot of errors. I also changed the graphs from Waveform Graphs to XY Graphs. For the life of me I can not get these vi's to work in 8.2 with XY Graphs. Can someone download the examples and help me with example#4?

I have attached the entire folder that I am working from. Please run example#4 and help me resolve the issues. This is for lv 8.2.
Thanks!!

John,

It would appear the errors are due to class conflicts between refnums being passed to subVIs.  I recommend you drill down into the VIs to find the broken wires going into subVIs and open those subVIs (such as ps-PropValue.llb\[ps] Property Value Class - IOName.vi) and select appropriate VI server classes for each refnum control.  The VI server class should match the target class that the calling VI converts the refnum to.

Let me know if you have any more specific questions and good luck!

Thats the problem. I drilled down to find the problem but once I found it, I didn't know what to do. So at this point I'm a little lost. I was hoping someone could fix the problem then I would see the difference between the new and old code
