how to determine which VIs are associated with a Labview executable

Hello.  I had worked with Labview some time ago and I have been primarily working with TestStand for the last couple of years.  I have been asked to find out which VIs are associated with a used with known labview executable so the we can examine the VIs themselves and report function calls.  I thought that I remember there is a way to get the executable and view its related VI tree, but I'm drawing a blank so far.

 

Please let me know if there is a way that I can find that list of VIs used for this executable.

What version of LabVIEW was used to build the exe? With older versions, all that you had to do was change the extension to llb. Newer versions have the info obscured but you then you would open the project that was used to build it. If you have the VIs, then I would expect you have this file as well.

I do not know which version of Labview it was built under, I am just getting a request sent to me now.  I will see if they have the project file available.  If I understand correctly, if the version is older, I just change the .exe to .llb and then how would I view the list?

 

Also, if I can find a project file and simply double click the library file, that will show me the tree?

Do you have the .VI file ? if you have it, open it and go to:

 

View -> VI herarchy

Double click the llb and you get the llb viewer. What version are you using now? The project has been around since 8.0.
