Suddenly, certain vi's cannot be loaded into project.

[Hez]

I'm using LabVIEW on a Windows XP machine and a PXI-1031 to send and collect information for an experiment. It's a fairly complicated project with multiple VIs. Suddenly, when I try to open any project on one particular machine (and not the othe 2 in lab), I see an error that certain VIs and CTLs (such as whitespace.ctl and ErrorCluster From Error Code.vi and VISA Configure Serial Port (Instr).vi) cannot be loaded and will be deleted from the project. We've tried restarting both computer and PXI and reinstalling LabVIEW 2009 without success. Any suggestions?

Hello,

From the way it sounds, whitespace.ctl must be a custom control that is not present on the other machine. Can you locate this on the controls palette? Similarly, the VISA Configure Serial Port.vi is part of the NI-VISA driver and that may need to be reinstalled as well. We need to be sure that you can locate the missing VIs on either your functions on controls palette. This will help tell us where the problem is occurring. Did this start occurring after upgrading to LabVIEW 2009?
