what i ment was that:

im runing a VI in which i dont want to allow the user to simply stop the execution.

Best practice is to hide the Abort Execution button when the VI is running. Instead, place a stop button on the front panel. Doing so, you can easily enable/disable or show/hide this button by the use of property nodes.

Read several times on NIs forums : Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

Hi JB,

Even i am facing the same problem, so for that i had used two buttons on above the other, one for START and another for STOP. I will be making the button visible and invisible accordingly. 

I was searching if there is any other method to do the same.

Any solution will be appreciable,
