Dear Sapsatin,

Appreciate your effort. The VI does not implement the Aysnchronous call method. The purpose of stressing on Asycnhronous call was to remove the GUIs dependency on the dataflow of the code. In your case its a good thought to use the picture control and the event structure but no other part of the code could execute till the operation inside the event structure is completed. If there had been two similar controls of yours and I move the mouse over one and I immediately place the mouse over the other, the second one will not operate till the first one completes its operation. Aysnchronous call helps you do this.
P.S: you can look into Prashanth patel 's code. That clearly depicts the situation.

Regards,
Team Webcast Wednesday

Hi PBP

Brilliant effort. Both the codes behave exactly as per requirement. The programming practices incorporated are also flawless. The only siuggestion I have is that you should always have a project file and all the VI's under that.

Hi Shweta

Appreciate the participation. In cases where the pop up box is only meant to display a message, your VI works. It was a very smart thing to enable 'VI runs transparently' property. However if the pop up was meant to perform some operation (Which is in most cases), then you should use a SubVI and set it's properties accordingly.
