call library function node: function not found in library

I'm using Labview 6.1 and Windows XP.  I am trying to open some code, but it opens up with a broken arrow.  The error is Call Library Function Node:function not found in library.  Tried to configure the node, but no change.  Moved the DLLs to various directories (keeping them together) but again no change. 
 
This code has been compiled and is working fine.  I'm just trying to run the source code to make some modifications.  Any suggestions? 
 
Thanks

Hi Carlos,

Is this a custom DLL, or is it possible there's an old copy of the DLL that's getting loaded?  To simplify diagnosis, I'd close LabVIEW, locate/remove any redundant copies, then reload the calling VIs.

What happens when you browse the available functions in the "Call Library Function" dialog - does the Function Name appear in the pull-down menu?

Cheers.

Thanks for the suggestions.  Tried it but had the same results.  The library I'm using is hpe1413_32.dll. 
 
One thing I forgot to mention....doing a configure on the node, it comes up with the library: hpvscp32.dll and the function: hpe1413_error_message
 
The function doesn't exist in the library.  So I set the path to hpe1413_32.dll which does contain the function. 
 
After closing the configuration window and opening it up again, the library shown is hpvscp32.dll
 
From what I can tell, there are three libraries involved:hpe1413_32.dll, hpe141332v.dll, and hpvscp32.dll
 
Thanks again.
 
Carlos
