Open vi reference problems in labview 7 after building an application

[Richard Kurvers]

I have a vi with an Open VI Reference vi in it.
This works fine. But when I build an application of it and run the vi it gives problems.
I get an Open VI Reference error. Why?

If you have strict typedefs for the dynamic loaded VIs you need to include the line "BldApp.RemovePolyVIsandTypedefs=False" into your LV ini file. See this discussion.

Are you taking into account that the path to a VI is different in a built app?

[waldemar.hersacher]

Dennis,

I always forget this because it is so self-evident (I hope the word is right) for a experienced programmer.
You should send me a bomb if I do it again.

If I had a dollar for all the things I forget and assume each and every day, I could retire soon. One of the hardest thing about this forum is judging the experience level of the person posting the question.

Hi Richard,
Please take a look at the following documents:

Error 1003 When Using VI Server in a LabVIEW Application

Cannot Call SubVIs Dynamically that Are Not Included with LabVIEW Executable

I hope these documents help. If not, please provide more info on what error you are getting.
