Transferring code

Solved!
Go to solution

Looking for opinions on how best to do this:
I have a section of code I want to transfer from this project to another project as a starting point and edit it once it is transferred. The section may contain 50 sub vi's. How best can I take this code, save it as a vi, make the sub vi's uniquely named so there are no naming conflicts when moving it to the new project, and copy it to a new project without any links to the old project? Basically, make it more so I can drop it into any other project without conflicts or linking to other locations? I have a method but would like different opinions.

1)Source distibution. change names, set the target paths, build.  

2)Create new project. add>Folder(snapshot). Presto!

 

great way to reuse a template project.

There were a few steps involved when you use 2 existing projects, but I was able to rename (to avoid conflicts) and move my code successfully.
