Restricting access to vi with password

[tastypotato]

I'm trying to modify the VI that was posted here: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/how-to-create-login-and-password-for-my-application/td-p/787166/high...

One of the things that I want to do but am having trouble with is when you actually successfully log in, the success button just lights up.

I don't know if it's possible - but I want our VI front panel to come up after the log in is successful. Does anyone know how we could modify the attached VI to do that or if it is even possible?

In the case structure you can replace the 'success' button with the vi that you want to run. If you set the properties of the vi to 'show front panel when called' it will open and run when a log-in is successful.

There are other ways to do this, this is one of the more simple ways.
