Switch Executive Libraries for LabVIEW 8.2

My company uses LabVIEW, TestStand, Switch Executive, and more.  I'm in the process of setting up a new PC with LV8.2, TS3.5, and SE2.1.  It seems, however, that this version of SE does not have libraries for LV8.2.  There are directories on the CD for LV7.0, 7.1, and 8.0, but not 8.2.  When I install, as expected, there is no option to get support for LV8.2-- only the other versions I listed.  I need the nise.llb file but am not sure if I should just install the 8.0 version into my LabVIEW 8.2 directory.  It just seems strange to me that the libraries for 8.2 are not there.  Can someone please provide me some direction here?

I'm new here so please keep your responses at the "new college hire" level ;).

Thanks,
Greg

Hi TekGreg,

The attached file was written in the format of a KnowledgeBase document and details how you can use Switch Executive version 2.1 with LabVIEW 8.2.  The workaround is simply to copy files from 8.0 to 8.2, but you want to make sure you copy them all.  Let me know if you have further questions or if this does not resolve your issue!

Thanks Chad!  That worked perfectly.  IMO the instructions in that pdf are a bit wordy but it's very straightforward-- copy the 8.0 directory contents to the 8.2 directory.  Thanks for the quick response.
