Solved!
Go to solution

I'm currently writing a program which shares data between 2 VI's.  I need a button on one of them which opens the other is there a way that this can be done???

 

Thanks,

Matt.

Hi Matt,

 

 

Have you tried to create a sub-vi? That will work, if you have 1 main VI, that will need to call some other functions that are implemented in other VIs.

 

Is that you case?

Hi, I don't really know what you want, but you can place SubVI into MainVI and let work them parallely. If you only want to show the Front Panel of the SubVI, than you can use the VI Server to do it. It would be the common statical call.

 

If you want to make something like a menue and START your SubVI dynamically, than take a look on this example:
