DLL Errors AND Invalid memory location

[Eric H.]

OK here is my problem...  I am converting a Labview 7.1 project to 8.0 and have come across an error I don't know how to solve.

When I load one of my VI's that ahas a Call to Function to a DLL that my predecesor wrote I get this error...

Error Loading.... my Vi  Invalid Memory Location. then an error box of Generic Error ...dll is not a valid Labview File....


What do I do.... Any help will be great????

Thanks

Seems to me that the dll was build in LabVIEW 7.1. Not entirely sure
though...

LabVIEW 8.0 cannot run compiled 7.1 code (and a dll is compiled code). So
you should install the LV7.1 runtime engine, or convert the dll code to 8.0
and recompile it to a dll. The latter is prefered.
