Warren Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 (edited) Hello, I have been using Labview to run a small executable, however I am having some difficulty. The program.exe will run when I execute my code in Labview, but I can't get my Labview program to continue its operation until the executable has finished, or has been closed. I have attached a small example to illustrate my problem. The executable I use is wordpad.exe (bc I think many people will have it) and it must be closed inorder for the labview code to run to completion. I was hoping to have labview and the executable run simultaneously - Any Ideas? Thanks in advance. - Warren. Example_exec.vi Edited July 23, 2009 by Warren Quote Link to comment
TobyD Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 On your system exec.vi, set Wait until completion to false. Quote Link to comment
