linking subvi's on a ftp

hello,
We learn labview at our school. I got an assigment to build a website where you can open a vi with a simple link. It works fine if there isn't a subvi in the program, but it doesn't find the subvi's Now my problem is: How to link to subvi's on a ftp location. The website is on ftp. i have tried to "save as" the subvi's to the ftp adress ,but it says it can't be saved there... You get my problem?
somebody got a solution?

Hi,

Why don't you put your top-level Vi and subVI's in a .llb library. Go to Tools> VI library manager.
When you open up the llb trough ftp, you should be able to connect to the subVI's.

But I'm not too sure what you are talking about. If the anwser above doesn't help you than you will have to specify your question.

Regards.

JV

LabVIEW saves subVI names (file locations) within the calling VI. If you move only the main VI to a new location, then it might not be able to find the subVI.

Another possibility is that you used a call to "Current VI's Path" and made the main VI an executable. In that case, the call returns ...EXE, which is not a valid path. I attached a VI that strips the extra text and restores "reality" to the function.
