VISA Labview 8 variant

[chatnis]

Labview 8 runing on windows xp Pro

crashes with this error message

when trying to convert variant value of VISA resource name to string.

see attached example VI

This VI was working great in Labview 7.0

This has been reported to R&D (# 3WKDUGV2) for further investigation. A possible workaround is to use the Type Cast VI instead of Variant to Data. Thanks for the feedback!
