The following icons can appear next to items in the Project Explorer window. If you have other LabVIEW modules installed, you might see other icons in the Project Explorer window.

Icon	Description
	The item is locked.
	You checked the file out of source control.
	Another user has checked the file out of source control.
	You and another user both checked the file out of source control.
	The file is in source control and is not checked out.
no source control icon	The file is not in source control.
	The LabVIEW project library access for the item is private.
	Build specification for a shared library.
	Build specification for a stand-alone application.
	Build specification for an installer.
	Build specification for a source distribution.
	Build specification for a zip file.
	A question mark with a blue background indicates that LabVIEW cannot find the default editor for the item. For example, if the item is a Microsoft Word document and Word is not installed on the computer, this icon appears next to the item.
	Shared variable with the Variable Type set to Single-Process on the Variable page of the Shared Variable Properties dialog box.
	Shared variable with the Variable Type set to Network-Published on the Variable page of the Shared Variable Properties dialog box.
	An exclamation point with a yellow background indicates the project has conflicts or LabVIEW cannot find the module or device that supports this item.
	A red exclamation point with a green background indicates the variable configuration is invalid. For example, if the library contains shared variables with the LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control (DSC) Module or with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, but the DSC Module or the Real-Time Module is not installed, this icon appears next to the shared variable. This icon also appears next to an item if the library file is modified outside of LabVIEW or in a later version of LabVIEW and opened in a previous version that does not support a particular property type or setting.
