mxbase - mx conversion

[SBurst]

Is there a utility, or a way to use search, to do a replace of mxBase vi's with mx vi's?  I'm working with a fellow who is Mac based and I'm PC based on a fairly substantial project.  Going thru and replacing each vi by hand is a real headache, but so far I haven't stumbled upon another way to do it. 

It would be nice if the mxBase vs mx difference went away.  It's a pain in the rear when collaborating.

thx,

Jim

Jim,

I do not know of any such utility.

One thing you could do which might ease the pain is to set up your program architecture so that all the DAQ stuff is done in one subVI.  Then make two versions, one with DAQmx and one with DAQmx Base.  Make sure that both have the same connector pane and the same functionality.  Then you only need to do all the replacements once (or once each time the DAQ functions change) and you only need to change on subVI in the main programs.

I second the motion for providing full DAQmx capability on all desktop platforms supported by LV.  Leave DAQmx Base for the mobile platforms like PDA.
