executable task name 200429

Solved!

I'm using LV8.5 with NI-DAQmx 8.6.  Getting error code -200429 "Value passed to the Task?Channels In control is an empty string (or I/O control).  The value must refer to a valid task or valid channel"

 

This error is intermittent, meaning sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't .. although it works most of the time.  However, the error only ever occurs with the executable version of the code, not in the development environment.  I have an indicator telling me the task name just before going into the sub vi where the error occurs (usually something like "_unnamedTask<1E1>"), but the indicator passed out of the sub vi that tells me the task name within shows a blank name ... thus the error.  So it appears the task name/reference is not be passed into the sub vi.  Any clues?
