VI:s corrupt after storage on old Apple Server

Many of our vi:s won't open in LabView 6 or 7 after beeing stored on MacOS ASIP (under MacOS 8.6). They are created on PC:s generally, stored for backup purposes on ASIP server, and will not open when copied back to PC (WinXP). Where shall one look for error messages, none pop up, or what shall one do to find the problem?

Hi,

The file is not complete. Normal VI's end with there name (you can check
this with a hex viewer, or with "read characters from file.vi"). The file
you've send, seems to be truncated halfway the file (there is a lot
missing).

I'd check the file size with what it should be (if you know). If the files
are this incomplete, there is no way of recovering them.

Regards,

Wiebe.
