hi Trex600N
I hope you have installed labview. if not install it first. Then go to start>>National Instrument LabVIEW..
Then a window will get opend which will have title bar " Getting Started" .Click on "Blank VI"
here you go with new vi created. save it and progarm it.
Best of Luck

Thanks for reply. I meant to create a sub VI . I managed to learn how to create a sub VI last night.
Now, I would like to import a picture in to my front panel. How do I do that?
I tried to import a picture .bmp but it did not work? Any idea?
Thanks alot.

Have you checked the LabVIEW Help? It explains how to do this:
Import graphics for front panel backgrounds using either of the following ways:
- Right-click the scrollbar of a pane and select Properties from the shortcut menu to display the Pane Properties dialog box. On the Appearance tab, use the Background, Browse, and Position options to set a pane background image.
- Copy the graphic to the clipboard and paste it on the front panel. You also can select Edit»Import Picture to Clipboard and paste the graphic on the front panel.

Were you able to apply the advice above? If you want to do this programmatically, see this KB http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/BC9281DCFCBF7B5C862570120064362C?OpenDocument
