running tcl script in parallel with vi code

[anurag_chauhan]

i need to run a tcl script from within a vi but i don't want to be blocked by tcl script. right now when i call tcl script within my vi using "system exec" vi, the rest of the code in my vi does not get executed until tcl script exits. i need to run tcl script in parallel.

an equivalent operation in unix can be done by running a script in background using &.

any ideas how to do it in labview.

Go to your help menu and select Show Context Help. Move your mouse over the function. You'll now see the help for the function and you can read what the input called 'wait until completion? (T)' means.
