SubVI is missing

I have a program which was written on Labview 7.1. I made some alterations and now it works on 2013 Version. However, I want to have on the 2014 and eveytime I load the program it tells DDE request, DDE open conversion, and DDE close conversion are missin. Then I receive the following messagein the attached image when I try to run it. 

Thank you all.

Sam,

 

For LabVIEW 6.0 and newer the DDE functions are not included by default.  National Instruments recommends that you use ActiveX instead, but if you want to use DDE, the functions are located in:


labview\vi.lib\platform\dde.llb

In order to add this Library to your LabVIEW functions palette you can copy the dde.llb file into:

labview\vi.lib\addons

This will make all the functions appear in the Addons section of the functions palette and you should be able to replace the broken DDE Sub VIs on your block diagram with these VIs.

If you need to relink a VI you can right click and select Relink in some cases.  When the VI is missing and you need to replace it with the actual one you can choose to right click >> Replace >> All Palette >> Select a VI
