Willy, Need some more info. Expand the ' Explain error' and get some more details as to which VI is giving the error. Also Check whether you have any VI's with invalid Help paths. check in "VI Properties>>Documentation.

Saw the following Ad. in ni.com. http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/1675 Anyway right now clicking on this takes you to LV 8 page...

I remember seeing a post where someone was suggesting a forum for these poor souls...not a bad idea though

No matter whether U read labview user manual or not before u start using it, U got to read this before you start posting here... Guys here will not do the homework problems for U, even if they know the how to....isn't it cruel

:laugh: Cool Reply.... What's happenning nowadays...is this the time when most schools give project work.... More homework hustlers these days...

Hi i2dx, If I got it right, you can go to Tools>advanced> Edit palette Set and right click on the VI icon,that needs to be "expanded" when dropped, and select the 'Merge VI' option. Nudala

I'm not going to say, "Thanks LAVA for the great pool of LV knowledge that you provide"...because, there is no need to state the OBVIOUS. But in addition to this, now I can identify the flags of more countries than I was able to, in my non-LAVA days.... One of the Off-topic things that LAVA teaches you... :laugh: Also thanks to WMassey who proposed this idea here and to Michael for making it a reality... nudalAKasim

All the best mballa :thumbup: . Is it possibile for you to elaborate on the features/improvements that you are trying to provide? nudalAKasim

Vladimir, Have you tried dqGOOP. This concept is really appealing. Hope you have seen this topic. nudalAKasim

Well said Michael :thumbup: , I usually re-look into my old codes, and each time, believe me, I feel "WoW I've improved a lot" and have "learned new things". And I believe that this will be the case for the years to come... nudalAKasim

Very true...but when deadlines are near, seeing the development environment stall and crash regularly makes one go maaadddd It seems life will just pass on in"Investigating Internal errors" and "Telling Microsoft abuot my problem".... :headbang: "LV 8.0.1/8.1", Where are you ? nudalAKasim

Once when I was hard pressed for processor time :headbang: , turning off "Themes" service(WinXP) gave me some breathing space...though still I don't have a clue HOW? nudalAKasim

If I got you correctly, You are using a sub routine(Sub VI?) which has an event struct , inside the 'true' case of a main vi and as soon as you run your main VI, the control goes to the true case and the sub VI executes. Here it will wait for a key down event...Now if you look more closely at the event it's source is "THIS VI'. So the event structure will trap events only if the 'Sub routine" is the active window, which means that the program is behaving as it is expected to. So either you can pop up the sub VI or try to trap the event in the main VI itself. nudalAKasim

Droopy, To measure voltage you require a card( or device), no doubt, but to run the program without errors, you can use simulated devices, which you can create using NI-MAX. See attached image. Here I assumed that you are using DAQmx...if not this cannot be done..You probably have to wait till you get your Robot(device?) is ready . nudalAKasiM
