There is not a direct way of saving back 2 versions.  LabVIEW only
supports saving a single version back, ie 7.0 to 6.1.  I believe the
conversion kit that was mentioned refers to the ability to open old
versions, 3.1, in newer versions of LabVIEW.

The only way that you can save a VI from 7.0 to 6.0 is to save it
first as a 6.1 VI.  So you need to save for previous as a 6.1 VI, and
then open the VI in 6.1 and save it for previous again.

Every time you save back you increase the chances that you will loss a
section of code.  For example if your VI is using the event structure.
You will be able to save to 6.1, but not to 6.0, because 6.0 does not
have the event structure.  So going through this process lets you know
what features you lost at what versions so you can weigh how important
that feature was to you versus the cost of upgrading.

If you have LabVIEW 6.1 you can do the save yourself.  If you do not
and your project is relatively small you may be able to post it here
and have someone attempt to save it back for you.  However you need to
keep in mind that we won=92t be able to test or verify that the save
back worked.
