I am using 2009 and I am trying to save a VI as previous version...saved it in 8.6, 8.5,8.2 and 8.0.
I mass compiled the Main VI in 8.6 and tried to open it. I get about 30 errors one for each event case and the event structure has no events added.
"Event Data Node:Contains unwired or bad terminal"
I am attaching a zip file containing my 8.6 source code which I down converted from LabVIEW 2009. I am trying to open it in 8.6
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Hey Brian,
This was reported to R&D (# 194525) for further investigation. A possible workaround for this issue is to save the VI to LabVIEW 8.6 and then save it to the various versions you wish to save the VI to. Also, another workaround is to manually re-enter the event specifiers to your cases.
When I saved the VI from LabVIEW 2009 to 8.2, the only thing that seemed to be out of place was the event specifiers. You can re-configure these by right-clicking on the event structure and selecting "Edit Events Handled by This Case...". Also, when I first saved the VI to LabVIEW 8.6 and then to LabVIEW 8.2, everything seemed to be in order.
Thanks for your feedback. Let me know if I can clarify any of my proposed workarounds.
