Copying functions from VI to another

[Bildavid]

Please guys I need you help !!! It is urgent guys PLZ PLZ PLZ :s

I have opened one of the examples that anyone could find in ( Find examples ) in labview 2009. now for the sake of simplicity I have copied ( CTRL C ) some functions from the example and put them in my new VI that I am doing .

 but when trying to execute the program . the (run continously button ) disappears . and when trying to run it from operate ==> run it gives me error ( this wire is not connected to anything and when telling labview to show the error all of the functions that i copied from the example disappears eventually .

Please guys any suggestions ?

Did you look at the errors at all?  When you double-click on an error, it will show you where that error is.  You do, in fact, have a wire that isn't connected to anything, an Unbundle by Name node with no input wired to it, an output tunnel with no wire connected, and some random VIs floating around at the bottom of the block diagram (which don't seem to be causing errors, but shouldn't be there).  You need to fix these errors.  I'm not sure what this has to do with copying from an example - maybe you didn't copy everything from the example, which left some connections disconnected?

And, you should never, ever, use the run continuous button anyway so if it's missing, be thankful.;)

There is nothing wrong with having multiple versions of LabVIEW installed.  You will need to reinstall your drivers after installing a new LabVIEW version to have them show up in the palettes.
