Certainly version 7 may have a very different execution order when it recompiles than something did under 6.1. But the code still should function in correct fashion. Code outside a loop can function before a loop finishes unless there is a direct data connection from the data inside the loop to the code on the outside. Version 7.0 may have more threading than 6.1 and this may be revealing problems in old code? It sounds like you have <http://www.laputan.org/mud/mud.html>. I have a couple of those projects as well. One that has been brought forward from Version 1 of labview and I hope to get to another major rewrite this year. Saving for previous versions should work fine. What kind of errors are you getting there? -Scott
