Building Program with Gyro

I am going from the project Explorer

Build Specifications -> FRC Basic Robot Deployment-> Properties

then I used Preview before I chose to build my robot’s code., only one problem I got an error:

LabVIEW cannot find a file that is a dependency of a Startup, Exported, or Always Included VI.

File Not Found: C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.5\vi.lib\Robotics Library\WPI\Gyro\GyroDevRefToAnalogChannelDevRef.vi

The thing is, I navigate to folder, and that VI is just sitting there where it says it is not. Anyone else have a problem like this? Plz help, not a lot of time to finalize this.

I think that problem was introduced in the 3.0 update to LabVIEW, and didn’t get fixed in the 3.0a update. When you actually Build the project, LabVIEW will not find the VI on its own, and it will give you an Open File dialog for you to find the VI for it. Once you have navigated to and selected the file, LabVIEW should be happy (for that project, anyway).

well, the first time I placed a Gyro ‘close’ vi, it couldn’t’ find it and I manually found it. and then it worked after that till now with the build. I am almost certain the url that it says it can’t find it at (which it is there) is teh same I led it to when I initially dropped the close vi.

url = path
