Using external llb when building applications

I would like to be able to update the SubVI's that an executable uses, but am having problems editing them after installation of the build application.

I am using the option "Small target file with external file for SubVI's" in the application builder, but I don't seem to be able to open the VI's present in the external library ("data.llb") after installation. I get the error message "ressoruce not found", when trying to open the file in LabVIEW. Does anyone know what might be the problem.

Those VIs get just as much stripped of their front panel and diagram
unless you specifiy not to do that in the VI settings in Application
Builder. Without front panel you can not load a VI in the LabVIEW
editor. It is only good for calling
by reference.
