Thank you Ken,
Could you back save that to LV 8.2 so we can use that in our 8.2 application work?
According to the error message I get, it looks like you used a condition terminal in a For loop (new to LV 8.5) and since the code is password protected, I can't fix this myself.
Thank you,
Ben

New Version of the tool which won't generate an error if you have password protected VIs or global variables with an extension .vi in your Project. Enjoy!

In the project list under My
Computer&gt;&gt;Dependencies there are vis listed for each of the
shared variables.&nbsp; If a shared variable is named 'Value' then there is
a vi listed there named 'Globals_Value'.&nbsp; If you click the right button
and Find Callers, it will list all the vis where that variable is used.

&nbsp;Thanks Randall... I hadn't thought of using that before, that will come in handy.&nbsp; I doen't find the instance of the&nbsp;variable on the diagram&nbsp;howerver, just tells you what vis its used in.

To find the shared variable instances on diagrams in 8.0, 8.2, and 8.5, the FindSV utility attached to this thread should work.&nbsp; If you're using 8.6, you will need to use the VI Analyzer Test I have attached to <a href="http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&amp;view=by_date_ascending&amp;message.id=348774#M348774" target="_blank">this other thread</a>. &nbsp;&nbsp;-D
