The same thing meaning "This VI is not executable," right?

Can you "run" the vi using the arrow at the top of the front panel (or the block diagram)? If that arrow shows as broken, the vi is not executable because of some error. Click it and you'll be able to see a list of errors. Select an error in the list and you'll be taken to the spot in the vi block diagram where that error is.

Before i create the .exe it has a solid arrow but after it is broken

So when you click on the broken arrow, what errors does it tell you need to be fixed?

There is an issue with certain IMAQ functions in the dashboard. See http://decibel.ni.com/content/thread/8763?tstart=0. If you are having problems with other functions, maybe you can let NI know in that thread.

This is a bug on our (National Instruments) side. For now the work around is to not use VIs from licensed libraries (like IMAQ vision analysis type VIs). I have a fix for this that we'll be including it in an update in the near future. Sorry for the inconvenience - you can blame me for this one.

We're making plenty of mistakes of our own...

Thanks for what you NI guys are doing for us.

[SCRATCH THIS WHOLE TOPIC]Yeah without you guys we wouldn't even have LabView to even get that error.

So I'll just grit my teeth and deal with it until it is fixed. Anyways thanks for your help.[SCRATCH THIS TOPIC]

When I made the exe for my dashboard I must have changed some setting that I shouldn't have. Long story short I made a new project and then built directly and everything works.
