The best thing you can do is make undoutly clear how you feel about it. He is young and at his first job, he needs to learn the rules. And you teach him that scholar behaviour (divide and conquer) work. It might help to tell him about the old topic. This topic is just a selfish, I need a shoulder to cry on topic. Confront him how you feel, and give him advice 'If I were you I would do....', however don't make it look like you are just putting stuff back. Provide help and support. In some ways you are his mentor, so tread him like a serious person. Remember in most sociaties 'No' is a valid answer, if he asks for you to put the wire straight just say 'No, remember what we discusses?' If this all doesn't work, and don't be easy on him like you were on his wife, then you should go to your supervisor and ask how you should deal with him in general, not this specific project that might be due in 3 days. Good luck, Ton

Isn't that the pinacle of evolution? A creature that goes around trashing its environment

I use the suspend when called feature a lot. Its a really great feature for debugging. However in LabVIEW 2009, the feature no longer works the same way. In LabVIEW <=8.6, you could update the inputs to a suspended VI and rerun your code and it would use those inputs to determine code execution. In LabVIEW 2009, if you change the inputs of the suspended VI, the VI still runs with whatever the caller VI passed into the VI. Here's a video to demonstrate this issue. http://content.scree...f8/00000135.swf

Ok. The next time you have to deal with Mr. D, Mr. D's wife, or your boss, ask yourself "what would Chuck Norris do or say?". Then do, or say that.
