XControl Labview 8.6 transfer to Labview 2020

I have a project that contains numerous xctrls that was originally developed in LabVIEW 8.6 and when I try to import this project into LabView 2020 I receive the following errors when 3 of the xctrls attempt to open.

 

The expected filename does not match the expected file name.

 

the listed filename has what appears to be a space at the start of the file name in the error message, yet the actual filename does not.  For example "c:\ Low Speed Pot V2.xctl"

 

The Xctrl also uses a GUID vi that is also distributed with version 8.6 I am aware of this problem and a solution it is not a contributing factor of the filename issue.

 

I have attached the source files for the xctrl.

Hi sma,

 

in LV2019 I could open this XCtl after handling several annoying dialogs about missing subVIs, wrong filenames, …

After this I had to re-assign the XCtl VIs into the XCtl definition.

 

See the changed ZIP file content…

Best regards,
GerdW

Thanks for the reply, I have ben unable to look at the supplied file as yet.

 

Can you explain the process of reassigning the respective files to the xctrls.
