Convert a folder of VIs to a previous version of LabVIEW

[Joel_G]

Overview
This VI will convert a folder of VIs to a previous (selectable) version of LabVIEW.

Description
This is not an example of good programming practices, it's purely functional, this code save time and thought others might find it useful for the same reason.

For an example that uses good programming practices, please look here (thanks Aaron!):

The only additional feature this VI gives is that it will maintain the folder structure of the VIs you're converting.

Requirements

• LabVIEW 2012 (or compatible)

Steps to Implement or Execute Code

1. Choose the Previous Version
2. Run VI

If you need a VI converted from a newer version of LabVIEW you have, then use the Version Conversion board.
