Error 6 occurred during build of compact FieldPoint executable

Question

I am building my executable for the compact FieldPoint and I received the following build error:
[ERROR]
Code:6
An error occurred while saving the following file:
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2009\vi.lib\Utility\SMTP\smtpeml.llb\SMTP Email Get Case Insensitive Search Pattern.vi

Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW:  Generic file I/O error.
=========================
NI-488:  I/O operation aborted.
Any ideas what caused this or how to fix it?

Hi Carol
I encountered an error similar to this when i was working with CD and SIM, I solved the problem by building the executable from the C: drive concluding that the file reference was too long.

Be sure to also disconnect all type definitions in Application Builder.
