I have a bunch of reusable LabVIEW files (VI-s, Classes). They are shared between different LabVIEW projects.
There is a need to reorganize these files moving them in HD. I believe it is quite conventional task. Size of reused code grows then more advanced structure of directories is required.
As long as files are used in single project, there is no difficulty to move them. If there are used in many projects, any moving is a nightmare.
Is there any good approach for moving files and directories in HD synchronizing multiple LabVIEW projects?

First, are you using libraries for your re-use code? If not, that is the first step you need to do. Then, I would suggest keeping your re-use libraries in a known location such as <LabVIEW>\vi.lib\<YOUR COMPANY NAME>. In addition, you should also be using source code control. If you are not well organized now it may take a little effort to clean up everything but once you have done that you should be in good shape.

Thank you Mark,
Yes I use classes and LVLIB-s.
vi.lib is out of consideration. Reusable files are kept in conventional directory.
Yes, all files are version controlled.
But how can it help in synchronizing projects?
