Non-blocking file selector?

Running W98/Labview 5.1.1, I have a DAQ application that collects data and
streams it to file. For this I would like to be able to change output
files without breaking the DAQ loop. For some reason, however the DAQ loop
occurence will time out the moment I open the file dialog, even though
the dialog runs in it's own while loop and even in it's own sub VI with
low priority. Any suggestions how I could get a non-blocking dialog box?

TIA,

Rudolf
