Error code 2147287038

Question

I'm using some database subVIs in a LLB developed in LV 7.1 PDS.
I wanted to test the application on another computer where I have LV 7.1 FDS without Database Connectivity Toolset.
I saved all the hierarchy in a LLB, including the database subVIs.
When I'm opening and running the main VI in LV 7.1 FDS, I'm obtaining an error code -2147287038 occured at DB Tools Open Connec (String).vi.
Is this because I don't have Database Toolset installed on the second computer or because LV 7.1 FDS does not allow polymorphic VIs (DB Tools Open Connection.vi is a polymorphic one).

Hello Tom,
All versions of LabVIEW should be able to handle the
polymorphic VIs.  I do not belive the problem is with
this.  I would start off by checking into
making sure that the database on both computers is the same, and the database
software is installed in the same way, etc…
As far as the software installation of the Database toolkit,
it is against the license policy for that version of LabVIEW and the toolkit to
have it installed on multiple computers (LabVIEW 8 and LabVIEW 8 toolkits have
changed this slightly, but the agreement for LabVIEW 7.1 and prior remains in
effect).  If the user of the other
computer is licensed for LabVIEW and the database toolkit and you wish to test
the software on the other computer, I would recommend actually running the
database toolkit installer program to ensure that the installation goes
correctly.
Hopefully this helps – good luck, and let us know if you
have other questions!
