1- Use a While loop around your diagram, and configure your vi properties (right-click on the icon at the right top of the window to set : Show front panel when called (in "Window apparence/customize", and "Run when opened" (in "Execution")
2 - The answer was given in your last post :
use a "Search and Replace String" function (in the String sub-palette) and wire a "," ("search string" input) and a "." ("replace string" input)

Not sure if this work for LV5.1 (Ot works for LV6)

The functions "Format Into String" and "Scan From String" have these
formatting possibilities:
"%,;" Use , as decimal seperator
"%.;" Use . as decimal seperator
"%;" Use system setting decimal seperator.

Eg, use "Scan From String" with "Format String"="%,;%.2f"
and send the outut to
"Format into String" with "Format string"="%.;%.2f"
