You just can't place a subVI with a while loop into a main VI. The way LabVIEW (and other programming languages) work, you pass execution control to the subVI (or function call). If you don't have a mechanism to stop the while loop in the subVI, execution control never returns to the main VI. You haven't provided any code so I don't know if you have to place all of your subVIs in the main or if you just need to rewrite some or all. You should really think about taking a LabVIEW class or start with the tutorials at http://www.ni.com/academic/lv_training/how_learn_lv.htm. If you have a specific question, you can attach your code and someone will try to answer.
A single pc with LabVIEW can actually replace the Excel and WebEx pc's if you want to go that route. I can't think what affect a pc using DDE would have on the LabVIEW program. I never did much more than a few experiments with DDE and that was a long time ago. Back when Microsoft actually supported DDE. It's been obsolete for a long time. It sounds like there is no connection between the pc's except for the serial cables so I'm really at a loss to explain it. Sorry.
