How do I get the block diagram back

[mcclements]

Please, please, please tell me that someone has come up with a way to get the block diagram back after choosing "application distribution" from "save with options". Got a bit tired and over wrote the original VI I was working on and now I can't get in to edit it.

Perhaps someone from NI can contradict me on this one, but I think once the block diagram is gone, it's gone.

It's not hidden, or passworded, it really is removed as far as I know. I've been in the same position, and the only option is to re-write from memory, or re-build from an intermediate version. You do have an old version stashed away somewhere don't you?

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news (Feel free to release your frustration with a *)....

Hello,

I'm sorry, but if the remove diagramms option was selected when doing the save and you don't have a backup of your original VI's, there is no way to retrieve the source code.
